Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 잘 익은 무화과와 다크 체리, 가죽의 향이 명확하게 드러난다. 1977년 증류된 글렌피딕은 1차 충전 셰리 버트에서 31년을 보낸 빈티지 리저브 보틀링으로, 31년의 숙성이 셰리와 우드의 영향을 견고한 골격으로 빚어냈다. 팰럿은 건자두 콤포트, 시나몬, 다크 초콜릿이 발전한다. 54.1도의 알코올이 짙게 입을 채우며 구조감이 견고하다. 피니시는 마른 셰리와 가벼운 가죽이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
somewhere between salmon and apricot
air Nose
the wine’s influence makes itself known straight away, with vineyard peaches, upmarket sangria (but of course), blackcurrant jelly and blackberry jam, all neatly draped over a tray of pastries, scones, blueberry muffins and the like. Gentle touches of liquorice and mint lend a civilised air to the whole. It’s very much a winesky, but one of the haute-couture kind on the nose, no doubt. But when, oh when, will the invasion of red fruits in malt whisky finally come to an end?
restaurant Palate
here we drift a little closer to the malt again, with blood oranges, a touch of gunpowder (presumably from a bit of S******, quite unobtrusive), reminiscent of many an ex-sherry. Then come cherry pie with honey, pepper, cinnamon, and something frankly akin to mulled wine, with brown sugar, star anise, cloves, and more cinnamon
timer Finish
rounded and pâtissier, with a surprising rum-raisin and old ratafia character in the afterglow
