I remember I used to find these Very Rare lightish twenty years ago, but this time I'm rather finding this 2020 edition extremely complex and rather akin to a Meursault from a good vintage (and from a good house, check Anne Boisson!) Higgledy-piggledy, I would say mango peel, fresh hazelnuts, angelica, citrons, touches of sorrel and coriander, toasted maize bread, lemon balm, biscuits, butter cream, that insane cake called Paris-Brest, a little chalk… Give it time, it is endless
restaurant Palate
no, I mean yes, this is bottled sin. You would almost believe it was a good idea to bottle this at 40% vol. (do not shoot). Peaches, melons and mangos vie for the leading part, heather honey's coming out too, then we have a little proper sugarcane syrup, a little peanut butter, orange blossom, baklavas, ripe bananas…
timer Finish
good, it is, indeed, fading away a little fastly now, which just makes you want to pour more. Tsk tsk, nasty trick
