Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
this feeling of pinewood-smoked bananas, plus porridge, cream cheese (hey Suzy! Sorry, Zappa fans only) and craft weissbeer. It is very fermentary and I would say the smoke only makes that feeling even bigger. I cannot find any Médoc, St Emilion or Pomerol, having said that, but I'm not sure I'm going to lodge a complaint
restaurant Palate
I think this is nicer than batch 1. Much fruitier than on the nose, although still rather singular (pink pepper, cream cheese, pomegranates, pears, soot, cider, turmeric this time again…)
timer Finish
medium, on some kind of sour smokiness and rather chenin blanc than cabernet, if you ask me. No, last time I checked they were not growing any chenin blanc in Bordeaux and with global warming, I doubt they'll ever do it. Spanish varietals might be next… (oloroso Pomerol, that would have style, no?) But I'm babbling…
