Review Detail

"Elegant" is the word that comes to mind.... From its package, to its aromas, flavours and finish, Chinaco is a rare treat. Deep copper-gold in colour and viscous in the Reidel glass it promises a memorable tasting experience. Nose is vanilla, florals, oak and deep agave. Initial taste is a sweet flush of agave with deeper herbals appearing later. Sweetness rolls over to a very satisfying low bitterness, leading to a long finish with flavours of oak, earth and smoke. Considering its region of origin, Tamaulipas, it is almost in a class of its own. A superbly crafted anejo in every respect.
