Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

well, this baby's got nothing to do with the 1998, it's much more tertiary and herbal/gamy. I find a lot of lovage and liquorice, tobacco (including a newly opened pack of menthol cigarettes - as far as I can remember) and then rather dry kinds of raisins, not too sweet or aromatic. With water: unusual. A lot of balsamic vinegar and maybe sage and bay-leaves. Loud chamomile as well, maybe a little church incense

restaurant Palate

very rich, oily, with bags of pepper and raisins, then caramelised apples and a little tobacco again (coming out of an untipped Gauloise!) Maybe a little pastis too. With water: more tobacco, this time with dark chocolate. Maybe black cherries too?

timer Finish

long and pleasantly dry. Reminds me what some used to call 'dry' oloroso. Walnut wine and bitter herbal liqueurs in the aftertaste
