Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

this is more ‘our style’ but frankly, I wouldn’t say there’s much happening. I get quite some cardboard and gunpowder, struck matches, raisins, orange marmalade and something that reminds me of tamarind jam, then more light honey and blood oranges. It’s quite becoming quite nice after the sulphury notes have vanished (or we got used to them) but it remains very light

restaurant Palate

more happening, with more spices and jams. Sultanas and pepper, dark chocolate, liquorice, heavily sweetened black tea and maybe even prunes. This, is pleasant

timer Finish

medium long, a tad more grapy and raisiny. Liquorice in the aftertaste
