Tasting Notes

Colour

rosé gold

air Nose

straight to the wine. It was probably sweet chenin Chaume-style. Yellow plums aplenty, walnuts, tree bark, moss, apricots and touches of pear cider. I’m not sure the distillate has much to say but this nose is funny and pleasant. With water: more moss, humus, mushrooms, old cellar… I like this musty side

restaurant Palate

oh yes, it’s the wine and the cask talking. This time we’re rather having a lot of liquorice, some pepper and cinnamon, ultra-ripe apricots, sultanas and Turkish delights. The chenin is very vivid in the combo, very noticeable. With water: fudge!

timer Finish

rather long, clean, very much on sweet chenin again, especially since the citrons came out
