Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

this is much more austere, on paraffin, wet chalk, raw wool… Also fresh oysters (ultra-refined), ashes. Gets farmier with time (‘clean’ manure). With water: even wilder. ‘A walk on the beach on Islay’ (yeah, yeah). Farmyard

restaurant Palate

raw, beastly, on lemon skin, limejuice, something very mineral. More a ‘riesling’ Caol Ila. With water: the salt comes out. Grape seeds. Very different from the ‘Eidora’ but the same high class. 88 points. Caol Ila 15 yo 1989/2005 (58.1%, Jack Wieber’s Castle series, cask #4544, 180 bottles)
