Sampling an old 2011 vintage. It’s just ok. Fruity floral nose. Tastes sweet with some agave but with an astringent note and aftertaste.
2005 - 3 year Añejo

Bottle: LT-E 0CW-03, 21-ENE-23, 10:56 Appearance: Clear Nose: Cooked agave, fruity, banana, vanilla, flowers, lavender, cinnamon, mint, cream soda, citrus, lime, herbal, rosemary, anise, and black pepper…nice opening Palate: Cooked agave, black and white pepper, hot cinnamon candies, vanilla, citrus, lime, menthol, coconut, flowers, lavender, dry earth, almond, brine/salinity, and clove…a bit more robust than the nose Finish: Vanilla, black pepper, cinnamon, alcohol, and clove…long, tongue-numbing, and medium viscosity Overall: The neck pour was initially pretty sweet.
