Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드 노카네티 인근 스페이 강가의 습한 풍토가 탐두 1989 빈티지의 19년 셰리 호그스헤드 숙성에 부드러운 결을 새겼다. 잔에는 짙은 호박빛이 잠겨 있고 노즈에는 셰리가 풀어놓은 건자두, 호두 껍질, 가벼운 가죽의 향이 또렷이 깃든다. 입에 들어오면 55.8도의 알코올과 함께 흑설탕 토피, 무화과, 시나몬의 풍미가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 여운은 셰리의 단맛과 마른 향신료로 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
coffee/mahogany
air Nose
prunes in Armagnac, Armagnac-soaked prunes, prune jam with Armagnac, prune sauce flambéed with Armagnac… Well, I guess you get the drift. Then more chocolate and coffee, fruitcake and a little leather, the whole getting then slightly gamey, in a nice way. Heavy, heavy sherry! With water: as often with these sherry monsters, it got more dry and ‘tertiary’, with more tobacco, herbs, smoke, soot, soy sauce… Quite superb now, I must say
restaurant Palate
thick and extremely rich, almost ‘spoonable’. Tar liqueur, creosote, oranges, cinchona, pepper, blackberry jam… The heaviness doesn’t prevent it from being very pleasant but of course, if you don’t like big sherry, you may drop this one. With water: great development, on notes of mint, eucalyptus drops, pepper, liquorice…
timer Finish
even more mint! High extraction. Long. Coffee in the aftertaste, as well as unexpected hints of tinned litchis
