Tasting Notes

Colour

pale amber

air Nose

quite some sherry it seems, of the flinty and sulphury kind (good sulphur here). Whiffs of olive oil and paraffin, shoe polish and coal smoke. Soot. Gets meatier after that, on ham and fresh wild mushrooms. Humus, tobacco and mint. Very nice

restaurant Palate

excellent sherry, nervous, with what could well be peat in the background. Very good fruitiness (raspberry eau-de-vie) and absolutely no heaviness here. Roasted nuts, chocolate, rose jelly, white pepper and maple syrup plus hints of juniper berries

timer Finish

medium long, clean, sherried, mid-dry mid-sweet. Balanced, eh!
