Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

much pleasant again but it’s having trouble after the 1998. This 1990 is curiously younger and harsher, with pears and apples everywhere as well as beer, leaven and dairy cream. Also limestone. With water: more rocks, limestone, whiffs of vase water and leatherette. Bizarre, bizarre, did you say bizarre?

restaurant Palate

a little difficult, with a soapiness and rather heavy paraffin, then more bitter/waxy flavours and a prickliness. Gin fizz. A strange baby to say the least, very un-Macallan. With water: becomes bitter and extremely grassy. The exact opposite of the 1998

timer Finish

long, grassy, bitter. Ashy and sooty aftertaste, which isn’t un-nice
