Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full amber with red hues
air Nose
a rather superb start on an elegant sherry and ‘improved’ coffee (that means with a little schnapps in it). Not too far from an old rum, with lots of raisins (Smyrna rather than sultanas), bananas flambéed, coconut milk… We have the same notes of soy sauce as in the 1964, also balsamico. Hints of smoke… Really beautiful
restaurant Palate
yes, it’s beautiful sherry, although maybe not as complex as on the nose. Thick, creamy mouth feel, with the same caramel and liquorice as in the 1964 but lots of other ‘stuff’, mostly the usual marmalade, raisins, rum, very ripe bananas, chocolate and coffee. State of the art sherry indeed
timer Finish
long, fruity (fruitcake) and caramelly, with also notes of Turkish delights. A very, very good sherry monster. 90 points . Balblair 1975 (46.2%, Jack Wieber’s Prenzlow Collection)
