Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 초반에 다소 건조하고 코코아 중심으로 좁게 열리지만 잔을 두면 캄포르와 체리 리큐어, 딸기잼이 올라오며 폭이 넓어진다. 57도 팰럿은 밀도와 힘이 모두 커서 셰리 몬스터라 부를 만하다. 크리미한 질감 위로 짠맛과 소금 감초, 말린 과일이 겹치고 후반에는 커피의 쓴맛이 구조를 잡는다. 피니시는 캐러멜라이즈된 과일과 감초가 길게 이어진다. 마호가니에 가까운 색이 셰리 우드 10년의 이력을 말해준다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
mahogany
air Nose
much simpler at first nosing, perhaps a bit lean and too dry, with lots of cocoa but it does get more complex with time. There again quite some vegetables, more camphor and some very nice notes of cherry liqueur (guignolet), strawberry jam. It hasn’t got the Signatory’s complexity but it’s still a very nice sherried Glen Grant
restaurant Palate
creamier, punchier and also very salty (Olivier said it’s perhaps an osmotic mouth reaction?) Now we have a truly beautiful sherry, with lots of vegetables again, salted liquorice, cake, dried fruits (prunes in Armagnac), getting very coffeeish. Lots of body and oomph – a perfect sherry monster indeed. The finish is rather stunning, on caramelised fruits and salted liquorice. This palate was hugely concentrated, probably a little better than the Signatory’s, but the latter had a nicer nose. So, it’s going to be 89 points for this MacArthur (I had it at 88 before).
