Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들고 코를 가져가면 물냉이 같은 풋내가 먼저 스치고 곧 말린 자두와 초콜릿이 옛 올로로소의 방식으로 밀려온다. 뒤에서 마른 종이와 포르치니 버섯, 석탄 연기가 따라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 자두와 초콜릿이 다시 크게 오지만 포도주 같은 결이 강해 몇 초 뒤 흩어진다. 딸기잼의 단맛이 잠깐 남는다. 삼킨 뒤에는 블러드 오렌지와 퀴닌의 쓴맛이 짧게 지나가는 1986년 12년 숙성 미니어처다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
what’s a little tricky is not to take OBE into account. For example, do these very big, very obvious notes of watercress come from bottle ageing or not? Other that that, we have bags of prunes and chocolate, well in the ‘full oloroso’ style of the time, but then more and more dust and old papers. Old bookstore, a few dried porcinis, quite some coal smoke and then the chocolate is back, together with more cut grass. Very fine nose but it’s quite dry despite some touches of rum that do emerge after a while
restaurant Palate
nah, it’s not its best side. The prunes and chocolate are back – big time – but it’s also a little too grapey, almost armagnacqy, and tends to fall apart after a few seconds. Some strawberry jam
timer Finish
shortish, with more blood oranges. A little quinine in the aftertaste
