Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 호박빛이 잔 속에 그윽이 고인다. 헤레스의 셰리 오크에서 숙성한 매캘런 12년 마리오 테스티노 에디션은, 잔을 코끝에 두면 잘 익은 자두와 붉은 과일 잼, 은은한 나무 향이 둥글게 어우러진다. 한 모금 머금으면 바닐라와 다크초콜릿의 단맛에 셰리다운 타닌과 향신료가 겹치고, 40도의 도수가 부드럽게 감긴다. 여운은 달콤함과 나무의 쌉싸름함이 함께 남으며 은은한 와인의 뉘앙스를 길게 이어간다.
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 . September 13, 2004 MALTS - Back from WhiskyLive Paris: lots of new bottlings! Let's start with the brand new Macallan range, if you wish. I'll report on many other interesting discoveries within the next days... Macallan 12 yo Fine Oak (40%, OB)
