Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
they say hogshead, but it noses like a barrel, with a load of vanilla cream, custard, vanilla fudge, then yellow melons and other lightly aromatic fruits. Stewed pears, poached apples, also rhubarb compote and kiwi jam, those sorts of things. Some cigarette tobacco in the background. Not a bomb, I would say
restaurant Palate
it hasn’t quite got the brightness of the 1995s, and perhaps has it gotten a little woody (green oak), but all the rest is pretty fine, almondy, and pretty spicy, with some lighter green curry sauce, masala, peanut sauce (satay?)… Having said that the background’s a tad gritty and green, with fruit peelings and some over-infused green tea. Touchy
timer Finish
long, with many green tannins. Or, you’re right, rather a feeling of green tannings
