Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

something metallic (iron, copper) and notes of sour ale, then broken branches and a lot of freshly cut grass. Mashed potatoes and perhaps even turnips. This one’s quite wild, and not extremely smoky so far. With water: damp old clothes, mud, mash, and more iron

restaurant Palate

pure distilled sauvignon blanc, smoked over a coal fire, and then blended with limejuice. Even sharper than the Caora. With water: smoked vegetable soup and litres of lemon and lime juices. You can check that you’ve still got all your vertebras when this baby goes down, 1, 2, 3, 4…

timer Finish

long and rather sweeter/rounder, but the peat smoke is well chiselled and there’s some marzipan in the aftertaste
