Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 금속 광택제와 그을음을 연상시키는 개성적인 향이 먼저 두드러지고, 허브와 고사리, 자몽 껍질 아래로 멜론과 복숭아의 과실이 서서히 드러난다. 아일라 브루클라디를 1966 빈티지로 담은 이 센테너리 디캔터는 팰럿에서 드라이한 풀내음과 쌉쌀한 캐러멜, 자몽과 재의 뉘앙스가 다소 오스티어하게 발전한다. 43도의 바디로 피니시는 오일리한 질감과 풀향, 옅은 금속성이 중간 길이로 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it is to be wondered if they hadn’t added a little peated old Bruichladdich, as what I’m getting at first sniffs is rather metal polish and soot/ashes. Whiffs of brake fluid as well, then rather herbs and grasses, with some fern, and perhaps grapefruit skin. It’s only after a good five minutes that the expected melons do start to come out, and they would come with peaches, although the whole will remain pretty sooty and grassy. Perhaps fresh walnuts (sherry?)
restaurant Palate
it’s not huge, but once again it’s surprisingly dry and grassy. Still some soot, touches of bitter caramel, a little cardboard, grapefruits and bitter oranges… And those ashes plus some pepper. Quite austere, globally
timer Finish
medium, with an oiliness, zests, grass, and something both metallic and cardboardy in the aftertaste. A touch of lemon too
