Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔에 담긴 호박빛이 은은한 광택을 머금는다. 매캘란 12년 더블 캐스크는 둥글고 균형 잡힌 향을 먼저 열며, 나무 향과 붉은 자두, 매콤한 시럽 같은 뉘앙스가 뒤따른다. 40도의 부드러운 알코올이 입에서 단단한 탄닌을 드러내고, 바닐라와 다크 초콜릿의 쌉싸름한 단맛이 겹친다. 두 캐스크의 숙성이 와인 같은 결로 흐르다가, 여운은 길게 탄닌의 떫음과 옅은 단맛을 남기며 잦아든다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
round, nicely balanced. Some very nice woody notes. Very spicy (syrah!) and almost like some old boy’s jam (all sorts of red fruits, especially plum). A great nose
restaurant Palate
lots of quite harsh tannins. Chapoutier uses some brand new casks for his Pavillon, so no wonder the malt’s alcohol extracted that many tannins. Hints of sulphur. Gets quite winey after a while. Notes of vanilla and dark chocolate. Rather long, but tannic and slightly sweetish finish. Not too enjoyable, I’d say, but the nose is really great. 82 points .
