Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

whiffs of flints, limestone, even sulphur stone at first, then sour wine, preserved artichokes, sauvignon blanc (which I often find very Coal Ila), then the flintier-and-yet-fat Meursault you could think of. With water: raisins, barbecue lighting fluid, even lighter fluid (or ol' Zippo), more flints…

restaurant Palate

once again it would start with a little sulphur, let's say leathery raisins, then open up with some cigarette tobacco and hoisin sauce. Then we have even more raisins. With water: good fun with this pretty mineral and yet very raisiny sherry cask

timer Finish

long, more on tobacco and tarry tea. Sooty aftertaste, with also notes of eggplant
