Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
this one is much heavier and kind of rougher than the new OB, with more oak and many more mineral notes. Wet limestone, chalk, ginger, then whiffs of lemonade and sea breeze again, leather, cut grass, leaves, roots… Definitely wilder and less fruity than the OB but well in the OP tradition. With water: water doesn’t change its profile mucho, except for more coastal notes such as seaweed. Also a little coffee and roasted nuts
restaurant Palate
we’re well in the same category as the OB but once again, it’s all rougher and bigger, which may well not be an asset here. Big oak, big white pepper and quite a ‘greenness’. Angelica. Gets frankly prickly (pepper flavoured vodka). With water: oh well, now it IS beautiful. Very nice notes of caramelised apples, roasted honey and green tea. A tad unusual but very likeable
timer Finish
long, clean, with the coastal side coming out. Vanilla-flavoured clams? (I’m sorry ;-))
