Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 아벨펠디 특유의 헤더 꿀과 잘 익은 과실이 먼저 두드러지고, 산지오베제 레드와인 피니시에서 온 붉은 베리와 옅은 향신료가 또렷하게 겹친다. 토스카나 와인 캐스크가 더한 화사한 과실감이 인상적이다. 입에서는 46도의 도수가 꿀과 붉은 자두, 가벼운 탄닌을 균형 있게 밀어 올려 구조감이 단단하다. 피니시는 마른 베리와 옅은 오크가 깔끔하게 이어지는, 와인 캐스크 시리즈의 개성이 명확하게 드러나는 보틀링이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold. Remarkable how little visual impact these wine casks actually have
air Nose
phew, as expected, this is much better, more on Mediterranean scrubland herbs, myrtle, waxes, wild cherries, even olive oil and maraschino. Altogether a very Italian sort of Aberfeldy
restaurant Palate
now that’s more like it indeed. Far more expressive, herbal, slightly acidic, jittery, with tart cherries and the kind of liqueurs our southern friends do so well, plus, predictably enough, a few pretty notes of grappa. Still not entirely Scottish malt whisky in soul, but the European flair is rather charming
timer Finish
long, and quite strikingly on bitter orange and pepper. I even get two or three black olives, though perhaps I’m dreaming
