Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
lighter peat than in more recent vintages at a similar age, with a profile leaning more towards apple than lemon, yet brimming with elegance. Redcurrant, sauvignon blanc, spent matchboxes, oil lamp… In reality we’re clearly in close territory to the previous one. With water: chalk and fresh mint, then the usual virgin wool. From Islay sheep, naturally
restaurant Palate
lemons make a comeback, alongside plum eau-de-vie and vin jaune… But heavens, this is powerful! With water: perfect trio of green apple, smoked salmon and oysters
timer Finish
long and a little fattier, bringing to mind lemon-infused olive oil, though that’s not exactly my favourite
