Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
oh lovely overripe apples and soft honey (and honeycomb, beeswax)… Plus some light OBE, rather of the tea-ish and metallic kind. Copper, old coins, apple crumble, very ripe kiwis, then more blond tobacco (Virginia) and a slightly sour, winey side that hints at sherry. Am I dreaming or they added drops of old Chablis to this? A very elegant nose, rather complex, and delicately un-modern
restaurant Palate
the oak’s a little loud, perhaps, and there are bags and bags of apple peelings, green tea, green peppercorns and orange zests. But what’s behind that, that is to say this mellow honeyness and all this spicy compote works very well. A touch of cinnamon, then plain oak. A little bitter
timer Finish
rather long given the strength, spicy and slightly bitter. The aftertaste is a little drying and too mentholated, which often goes together
