Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this is huge. There’s a pronounced ‘sulphurous’ quality that isn’t actually sulphur, if you catch my drift. A freshly extinguished beach fire, white truffles from Piedmont, green walnuts (thank you, manzanilla), wild mushrooms, whiffs of pickles in brine, and heaps of seaweed. Again, the fruit is incredibly discreet. With water: no changes whatsoever
restaurant Palate
for a 2nd fill, there’s still quite a lot of manzanilla influence, which is just as well—we’re fans of manzanilla, especially when En Rama. So, seawater, chalk, walnuts, mustard, radishes, oysters, and an avalanche of ashes. Dazzling, though this style does tend to divide opinions. Buying a bottle doesn’t exactly entitle you to master this liquid, does it? With water: again, little change. Perhaps even more smoked oysters and a true punch of salt, or more accurately, salinity
timer Finish
monstrously long. Salt, olives, vinegar, oysters, mustard, cigar ash, ‘sulphur’, and walnuts. Dry as a bone, with absolutely zero sweetness—there’s more sugar in a piece of granite
