Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
starts sort of calmly, with notes of boxed pineapples and papayas, but getting then rather bolder. after a few seconds. Also pink grapefruits that make a transition toward farmy notes such as hay and grain barn. It gets then waxier, slightly mineral and oily (linseed oil). Hints of fresh almonds, sorb apple spirit, olive oil… And then quite some orange juice, cider, hints of passion fruit. Well, that was a slow, but long development
restaurant Palate
extremely fruity, citrusy and peppery. All kinds of lemon, tangerines, oranges plus a little passion fruit and dashes of spices such as pepper, clove, cinnamon… Gets then a little sugary, maybe ‘weaker’ and slightly tea-ish towards the medium long, citrusy finish. Good, especially on the nose, but not exactly thrilling, I think. 85 points. Glenugie 1966/1986 (55%, Samaroli, 480 bottles)
