Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
깊은 금빛이 잔 벽에 진하게 배어 있다. 초콜릿과 홍차, 마른 담뱃잎의 향이 앞서고 팔로 코르타도와 오래된 와인 저장고를 떠올리게 하는 산화의 결이 뒤따른다. 45.4도의 입은 짜고 건조해 브레사올라와 호두, 피칸의 맛이 이어지다가 석유와 백묵의 광물성이 스프링뱅크임을 분명히 알린다. 같은 1994년이라도 이 스물다섯 해짜리는 향의 무게가 훨씬 무겁다. 여운은 호두와 광택제, 담배로 단정하게 정리된다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
completely different and that was to be expected. This time we're really on chocolate, black tea, dry tobacco and dried flowers, patchouli, mint tea, palo cortado, old walnuts, old wine cellar… We're really less 'refill' than 'refill'; I know what I'm trying to say. Over time some whiffs of old mentholy embrocations arise, together with these pine-y touches that are often to be found in very old cognacs or armagnacs, aplus very old chardonnay that oxidised rather beautifully. A nose for wine freaks? Was that done on purpose?
restaurant Palate
I see. Dry, salty, very bouillony, tarry, on bresaola, tobacco, more walnuts, pecans, then these petroly and chalky notes that do keep screaming 'Springbank!' Some lively -and lovely- touches of melissa water and sage add more life and freshness to this one. Just give it a little time
timer Finish
medium, perfectly balanced. Walnuts, polish, salty bouillons and tobacco, mostly
