Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
Light amber
air Nose
slightly saline at first. Notes of old Amontillado, wet earth, a rubber band, dark chocolate, hessian, crushed walnuts and some aged pinot noir. There’s also a little game, talcum powder, BBQ char and cherry heering. It veers into maraschino cherry territory as well which increases this overall impression of a decent Manhattan cocktail. Orange peel, salted liquorice and cloves should also all be noted. With water: marzipan, a little salted meat and some peanuts. Still rather big and punchy
restaurant Palate
a rather big and earthy sherry, but it’s also clean and pleasantly fruity as well. Notes of strawberry wine, orange luxardo and walnut oil all come through. A little nougat, chocolate Brazil nuts, dunnage warehouse and cough medicine as well. With water: softer on the palate with water, some green fruit notes emerge now, along with sultans and red currants. A little raspberry jam doughnut as well
timer Finish
Medium-long and quite drying with lots of earth, some residual tannins, bitter chocolate and spices such as cloves and cinnamon
