straw
air Nose
as zesty and mineral as Rosebank could be. There’s an austerity, but this flinty side is beautiful. Lemons and gunflints, limestone, then more mint and, indeed, riesling. Maybe touches of aspirin tablets, gravel, and just a little milk or dairy cream... A faint yeastiness. With water: I already experienced this phenomenon in the past with Rosebank, it gets chalky and inky, and even a little butyric. Maybe not the best swimmer ever
restaurant Palate
very, very zesty! Lemon drops and marmalade, limoncello, a grassy touch, a bit of white pepper and just one walnut. Uncomplicated but very Rosebank in its zesty narrowness. With water: once again water doesn’t do it much good. Slightly stale lemon juice
timer Finish
long, very zesty (without water)
