Tasting Notes

Colour

deep gold

air Nose

starts with toasted oak, goes on with cinnamon rolls and chocolate, and keeps going on with burnt cakes, especially brownies. Roasted malt, Ovaltine, prunes, a touch of blackcurrant jam that gives it a faint pinot-noiry side… But it’s clearly not very red-wine-y, total great news here. With water: fruitcake and candied cherries

restaurant Palate

a tad more grape-y, almost merloty at first (Saint-Emilion isn’t far, I mean, as far as flavours are concerned), then rather oakier, with more roasted malt and black tea, black pepper, other cinnamon rolls, sour teas, slivovitz… With water: nice, fruitier. Blood oranges, redcurrant jam, more cherry jam…

timer Finish

medium, rather on cherry cakes and battelman
