Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

incredibly approachable at such a high strength, and even if the new oak feels a bit (vanilla and fresh sawdust), these whiffs of freshly squeezed oranges are just lovely and bring much freshness. I also find some lemongrass and very clear notes of lime-blossom. With water: pure, unadulterated acacia honey!

restaurant Palate

fierce and young, but great, or rather great, but young. Pear drops, tinned pineapple, loads of sweet creamy vanilla, acacia honey, then more lemongrass and coconut. This could make for a great sauce to pour onto grilled chicken, Thai style. With water: an Irishness comes out, quite bizarrely, as well as notes of IPA beer, hops, chlorophyll… The oak has been very active, in a good way

timer Finish

long, grassier, with some fresh oak
