Online tasting note for reference:

Nose:
easy, peaches in all their states plus apricots in all their states. And a spoonful of orange blossom honey. Easy. With water: hints of parsley and thyme, plus those easy peaches and apricots, plus touches of turmeric and dried porcini powder. A little more power.

Mouth:
indeed it is rather full-bodied on the palate, spicy, leafy, even a little brutal while the nose would have suggested otherwise. Not so easy, after all. With water: some rusticity, earthiness, mushrooms indeed, a little muscovado, turmeric, ginger, even flints, pine needles, fruit peel…

Finish:
long, a tad more drying, with more earth. A little menthol and liquorice wood in the aftertaste.
