Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

a tad newmaky at first nosing, and very smoky too, but frankly, it’s too powerful and difficult to nose. In other words, it’s very anaesthetic and, yes, medicinal. Water is needed… With water: white tequila and a lot of smoke. Beach sand, barbecue, charcoal and fresh sardines, then cut cactus (make that tequila again)

restaurant Palate

perfectly grassy, smoky, chiselled, citrusy… And powerful. Impeccable ashy dryness. With water: extreme dry smoke and ashes plus a little lemon and grapefruit here and there. Sharp like a blade, as they say

timer Finish

long, sharp, extremely ashy
