Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 빛에 비추면 5년짜리라기엔 색이 짙은 호박빛이다. 코를 넣으면 대추야자와 무화과 잼, 오래된 와인 저장고 냄새가 한꺼번에 밀려오고 소금기와 감초가 그 사이를 가른다. 43도로 한 모금 머금으면 셰리의 단맛이 날카롭게 솟았다가 소금 뿌린 다크 초콜릿과 으깬 아몬드, 야생 버섯으로 이어진다. 삼킨 자리에는 견과와 흙내가 바삭하게 남는다. 캠벨타운의 짠 기운이 셰리를 끝까지 붙잡는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
Amber
air Nose
close your eyes and you’re almost in a bodega in Jerez. Or, at least in a bar nearby nosing some VORS Oloroso. This is a pure and heady mix of dates, fig jam, damp earthen floors, old wine cellars, vintage burgundies, raspberry compote, Nutella, coal scuttles, salted liquorice and old walnut wine. Intoxicatingly salty, lean, coastal, mineral-flecked sherry
restaurant Palate
arrives softly but the sherry rises with pin-sharp purity and you get a big hit of bitter, salted chocolate, crushed almonds, pancetta, wild mushrooms, a touch of ointment, some sea air and many soft earthy and leafy notes. There’s also black olive bread, a touch of caramelised brown sugar and more very old pinot noir character
timer Finish
Good length, superbly crisp, earthy, saline and nutty sherry again. A few extra degrees of alcohol would probably have propelled it into the stratosphere, but we’re splitting hairs
