Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

not exactly bold but very pure and clean, starting on fresh butter, vanilla and whiffs of wood smoke. Gets then both grassier and nuttier, with also hints of hot bread (baguette of course) and faint hints of violets. Rather complex and elegant. No sherry that I can smell at first sniffs but something sherry-ish does develop indeed over time. Also slightly yeasty. More and more buttery notes

restaurant Palate

good body, with much more sweetness at the attack (apple pie) as well as bunches of caramelised nuts and quite a lot of honey. Then dried figs, poached pears and plum jam. Coating

timer Finish

rather long, jammy, candied, with also sultanas. Terribly drinkable
