Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
리지 진판델 와인 캐스크가 이 브룩라디 2001에 선명한 붉은 과실의 결을 입혔다. 아일라에서 드물게 피트를 쓰지 않는 증류소답게, 향에서는 잘 익은 라즈베리와 자두, 옅은 향신료가 또렷하게 솟아오른다. 46도의 도수로 한 모금 삼키면 붉은 베리와 보리 단맛, 가벼운 타닌이 부드럽게 입을 채운다. 진판델 캐스크가 입힌 발그레한 빛이 잔에 잠기고, 5년이라는 짧은 숙성에도 와인의 개성이 선명하다. 여운에는 베리와 옅은 후추, 마른 풀이 산뜻하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
starts somewhat similar to the 1986 but there’s much more bourbon influence after that, with much more vanilla and soft spices (curry, ginger, nutmeg, white pepper), as if it was from a first fill bourbon cask and not refill. Quite some honey as well but the usual fruitiness is kind of hidden behind the cask here. Maybe water will unleash it? With water: thank god it works way better than with the 1986, even if it does get grassier indeed. Hay, almonds, seaweed and linseed oil
restaurant Palate
we’re extremely close to the 1986 here. Punchy, grassy and almondy, with notes of apples in the background (yeah, copy and paste.) Also hints of bubblegum and pear drops. With water: again, we’re quite close to the 1986. It’s maybe a tad fruitier, more on ripe strawberries and very ripe peaches. More spices as well (ginger), as well as nice honeyed notes
timer Finish
rather long, more on fruit liqueurs, cinnamon and vanilla fudge
