Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
light amber
air Nose
similar, maybe a notch more closed at very first nosing and less winey. Pinewood again, mint, cough syrup, blackberries, chestnut honey, earth… It’s rather oakier than the two others, with also more leather and less sherry although some very nice whiffs of mentholated oloroso start to rise after a few minutes. With water: more mentholated oloroso (should that exist)
restaurant Palate
very rich, very spicy. A combination of Armagnac-soaked prunes and earthy spices, cardamom, ginger, black pepper and sweet Moroccan allspice mix. And let’s not forget the oranges and the raisins. With water: perfect earthy/spicy profile, with many bitter oranges, milk chocolate, mocha and raisins. Spices from the oak
timer Finish
long, peppery. A little curry. Cardamom and bitter chocolate in the aftertaste
