Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

roasted with a touch of rubber and a basaltic aspect reminiscent of burnt cakes, not exactly typical of Australia, I concede. Then we have caramelised nuts and grilled pistachios, all working rather well together. The Tokaji influence is present but not overpowering, unlike some other Tokaji-cask finishes we've encountered in the past

restaurant Palate

yes, it works fairly well, not too dissonant, though it does come off as slightly pre-mixed and perhaps a tad too sweet. Certainly not Eszencias-level, I imagine. Was it a true Tokaji cask?

timer Finish

medium length with a faint smokiness, perhaps a hint of sulphur, mustard, and grilled nuts. There's a growing difficult influence, alongside bitter oranges. The aftertaste is a touch too bitter, somewhat artichoke-like
