Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
interestingly, it’s the sherry wood that talks first here but it’s absolutely not a big one. In fact we’re having a rather elegant combination of flowers (roses and peonies), fruit-filled chocolate (some kind of ganache) and then more dried flowers coming together with an unexpected smokiness. Coal smoke, it’s like if this came from an ex-peater cask. Also mint. With water: brings out more oak (pencil shavings) and espresso but the rest remains there. Very nice
restaurant Palate
oh this is lovely! Some sweet oak (recharred sherry hoggie?) and a perfect, almost crystalline fruitiness that would involve apricots and litchis, which, granted, is an unusual combination. Then more and more lime and even a suggestion of white tequila or mescal like we had the other day. Must be me… With water: exactly the same feeling as on the nose, the oak is kind of lifted, even more so on the palate
timer Finish
long, creamy, lemony. Peanuts (oak) and lemon in the aftertaste
