Tasting Notes
Colour
pure gold
air Nose
surprisingly smoky (Valentino Zagatti would have said ‘molto torbato’ ;-) Lots of caramel and lots of vanilla. Some very nice sherry notes, quite refined. X-mas cake, dried fruits… Too bad all that doesn’t last for too long, the nose getting somewhat weak after thirty seconds or so – but how elegant!
restaurant Palate
ah, bolder than expected. Slightly tannic… Really a classic, but it’s not too complex. Lots of cooked apples with some cinnamon and caramel, getting a little drying and bitter after a while. Medium long finish, on cocoa powder and cardboard. 80 points . Hmm, as they say in Italy: ‘for drink or for collect?’ – yes, that is the question. DISTILLING - Oh, I forgot to tell you that like every year, we had our 'distillation day' at home last Saturday. This year we made some pear (label above) with a new still we never rented before (but who the hell had the idea to paint it blue?) Yes, this is a potstill. We'll try to peat and distil some marc de gewurztraminer next year, and this is no joke . TASTING - Glen Mhor 10 yo (43%, OB for Moccia, Ferrara, bottled circa 1972) The bottle’s got the same shape as the current Isle of Juras’, and Valentino Zagatti told us it used to be his favourite dram
