12s: light fruits, apricot and peach are dominant, slight acidity of green grapes, lemon zest, lime.
Honey and vanilla play more in the background. He looks quite sparkling (but not alcoholic).
Very fine powdered sugar sweetness.
Over time, oak spice in the form of cinnamon, plus a handful of herbs.
[13er: also light fruits, but more sweetness, also in the form of honey sweetness; compared to 12 it seems "heavier", deeper, more fruit and above all more sweetness.
In contrast, I have almost no acidity here (which is more pronounced in the 12); if acid, then more in the direction of orange.
The oak spice/cinnamon moment and the herb garden are also present, but take a back seat here. But I still have a hay moment in my nose here.
More vanilla and more honey, going towards acacia honey.]

12er: herbal right from the start; Spices come pushed behind; the fruits are not so present at first, but appear later. Slight acidity as in the nose. Slightly bitter note of espresso powder.
Second sip: creamier, becoming more viscous; full load of herbs and spices. Here, too, the fruits hold back at first, but come later; apricot, peach.
[13er: more fruity, the herbal component is there, but not as intense as with the 12er. Overall, more focus on fruit and sweetness, honey and vanilla come through well.
Second sip: more herbs and spices this time; not as viscous as the 12; the 13 knocks on the palate with more peppery spiciness.]

12er: light fruit notes of stone fruit, the bittersweet something of coffee/espresso; bit of tannins, spice; overall short to medium-long finish.
[13er: here they don't give each other anything; then Nc'Nean's core DNA comes through again; practically identical to the 12.]
