Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 부나하벤 1968 빈티지가 42년 셰리 캐스크에서 빚어낸 짙은 건자두와 가죽 향이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 비피트 아일라 시그너처인 짭조름한 미네랄과 잘 익은 무화과 잼 노트가 뒤이어 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿에서는 44.8도가 부드럽게 미끄러지며 셰리 단맛, 마른 호두, 까만 향신료가 단단한 구조감으로 발전한다. 피니시는 광택 나는 오크 탄닌과 잘 익은 베리가 길게 이어지며 옛 아일라 셰리의 결이 또렷이 깃든다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale amber
air Nose
it’s rather more discreet than its sisters, less emphatically honeyed and fruity and rather more on light Havana tobacco and old leather, although some delicate notes of tangerine liqueur, verbena and wormwood do arise after a short while. Also nice touches of old pu-erh tea, leaves, humus… Curious about the palate, it could be worn-out with such a nice but delicate nose
restaurant Palate
not at all, not at all! It’s actually fuller and more vibrant, with very nice notes of herbal tea (many kinds, rosehip, thyme, maybe anise…) and dried fruits. Spice mix for mulled wine, speculoos, sultanas, a little tobacco again… All that before it becomes a little drier and maybe a tad too much on cinnamon
timer Finish
medium to short, even more on cinnamon. Also raisins
