Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
버번 호그스헤드에서 16년을 보낸 숙성이 복합적인 크라간모어에 맑은 골격을 더했다. 버번 우드의 영향으로 코에는 풀 향과 사과, 바닐라가 깔끔하게 오른다. 입에서는 58.1도의 도수가 시트러스와 꿀, 가벼운 향신료를 단단하게 밀어 올리고 스페이사이드다운 보리의 단맛이 받친다. 옅은 황금빛을 지나 여운에는 바닐라와 마른 풀이 깨끗하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
nah, raw varnish and pears on a lot of cut grass and various leaves. This is rather extreme, and very austere when un-reduced. With water: farmyardy. There’s also quite some chalk, which I enjoy. Hay, chalk, wheat, barley… And some rain water
restaurant Palate
same style as the 2004, and this 1997 doesn’t quite feel any more mature or polished. Prickly leafiness and some bitter fruits. Peelings, leaves… With water: the fruits are coming out. Pears, apples, oranges, grapefruits…
timer Finish
quite long, still a bit austere. Apple peelings. What’s very nice is that it’s got an aftertaste that resembles that of some top-notch sauvignon blanc
