Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
there are rocks and there’s some coal smoke at first nosing, which comes with a lot of plasticine and putty. New leatherette, cider apples, grass… I wouldn’t say this is a very sexy nose, but indeed it’s different. With water: becomes even more austere. Old oil barrel (empty), rocks, saltpetre, a touch of dry hops, white bread…
restaurant Palate
raw lemony and grassy rocks, chalk, wax, oil… It’s a little rough but on the other hand, there’s something very natural to this. With water: a little more fruits, perhaps touches of melon as often in Bruichladdich, but there’s also a feeling of rye, porridge, wholegrain bread. Whether the fact that it’s organic has any influence, I have no idea, it shouldn’t in any case. But it feels ‘natural’ indeed
timer Finish
quite long, still grassy and peppery
