2001 Chardonnay Magnum Tasting (New Jersey) : As usual, very rich and chocolatey with the bourbon notes on the finish. With age this was lightly charged with small bubbles. So rich, and great with the carrot cake. A real contrast while sitting by a fire!

Extremely small-production imperial stout aged in ex-Bourbon barrels. Ridiculously black (545 EBC!) color with a big, persistent, cappuccino-colored head. Quite rich and moderately vinous, yet somewhat restrained nose with huge, oak driven character; aromas of spicy wood, Bourbon vanilla, some smoke, a little bit of maple syrup and a hint of chocolate malt. The beer smells more like an over-oaked new world red wine than anything beer-related. On the palate the beer is much more expressive than the subdued nose …
