Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
as we've said several times before, peat and Sauternes work if the proportions are respected. Still, I imagine all the old retired winemakers who probably don't even know their wines now end up this way… Very ripe apricots, quince, ashes, green pepper. It works. With water: the green pepper comes out, which is a bit less pleasant. Wet clay, that's nice
restaurant Palate
no problem, it's very good, these young Caol Ilas are powerful enough to resist the Sauternes when the atter's a bit boisterous. Even if we can't say it's a perfect harmony, it drinks very well, even if it becomes green and very spicy, perhaps due to the use of French oak. With water: rebalancing in progress, but the greenness remains
timer Finish
long, even more herbaceous. The sweet side of the Sauternes returns in the aftertaste
