Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
we’re very, very close to Clynelish as we know it today here, except that this is a tad more mustardy. Other than, that we’re all on beeswax, paraffin, roasted nuts, bread crust and apple compote, with faint whiffs of iodine. Rather big notes of quince jelly arising then, as well as a little sweet wine (Maury or Rivesaltes and the likes) and dry sherry. Back on mustard and smoke at the end
restaurant Palate
a punchy, peppery and candied attack, very nervous, with quite some peat and hints of fructose (or kiwi). Gets sweeter and sweeter after that, almost sugary, with various jams (apricots, plums, orange marmalade) and quite some oak. Gets also a little bitter (grass, leaves, oak)
timer Finish
long, half-sweet, half-grassy, with rather big tannins. A tad drying
