Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 1969년 빈티지의 짙은 호박빛이 잔 벽을 천천히 타고 내려온다. 코끝으로 가져가자 셰리 버트가 길어준 건자두와 흑설탕, 옅게 그을린 흙내가 가장 먼저 인사한다. 한 모금을 머금으면 캠벨타운 특유의 짭조름한 광물성이 입천장을 부드럽게 덮는다. 52.3도의 알코올이 28년 숙성의 단정한 단맛 위에 무화과 잼과 가죽, 옅은 후추 자극을 얹어 발전시킨다. 잔을 입가에서 살짝 떼고 다시 가져가면 셰리 캐스크의 단맛이 또렷이 떠오른다. 삼킨 뒤에도 시그너토리가 골라낸 캐스크의 묵직한 단맛이 입가에 오래 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold-amber
air Nose
rather hot at first nosing, with an obvious sherry but also quite some caramel and hints of iron, mint and parsley. A little soy sauce. Rather rougher than expected, wilder… Gets rather vinous after five or six minutes, with notes of strawberry jam and liqueur, blackcurrant jelly, also ham and leather, shoe polish. Kind of a slight ‘dirtiness’. Gets even more minty and herbal after fifteen minutes. This one really improved after three or four months of breathing in the opened bottle. Also something animal (game)
restaurant Palate
a bold attack, jammy, caramelly, orangey… Develops on Bailey’s and fruit liqueurs (it’s quite sweet), ripe pineapples, dried bananas, coconut liqueur (you know which brand)… Gets almost thick, not exactly cloying but…, let’s say invading. Quite some bitter chocolate, getting a bit drying. Still quite rough
timer Finish
rather long, now frankly on liqueur-filled chocolate and hot praline. A strong Springbank with lots of sherry, for amateurs of the genre – probably hard to find, that is. 89 points . Springbank 28 yo 1969/1998 (52.3%, Signatory, cask #2382, 490 bottles, sherry)
