Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 코끝에 가져가면 풀기 있는 셰리 향과 함께 화약, 그은 성냥 냄새가 먼저 다가온다. 잔을 더 흔들면 풋호두와 비터 오렌지, 옅은 멘톨이 뒤를 잇는다. 한 모금을 머금으면 유럽산 오크에서 온 육두구와 계피, 생강이 앞서고 세비야 오렌지의 쌉쌀함이 뒤따른다. 물을 조금 섞어 삼키면 젊은 올로로소와 담뱃잎의 마른 맛이 또렷해지며 향신료가 길게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
some green and grassy sherry upfront, with quite some gunpowder and struck matches, and a certain rawness. Green walnuts, bitter oranges, a little fresh thuja wood, a touch of menthol, leaves, just a wee hint of rubber… It’s all a little rustic but I find this pleasant. Some parts remind me of the old 10 C/S, only with less roundness. With water: a little more sulphur, used matches, bitter leaves, raisins and really a lot of oak spices. Woodwork
restaurant Palate
a little heavy on the oak indeed (nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger that suggest European oak), then peppery and orange-y. Seville oranges, walnuts, more leaves, grape pips... Rustic again but not quite brutal. With water: nice, peppery, spicy, dry. Young oloroso, tobacco. It hasn’t got much of the old oranges and chocolate style left, though
timer Finish
medium, green, spicy, a tad bitter
