Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
맑은 호박빛이 잔 속에서 따스하게 빛난다. 트래디셔널 오크 싱글 배럴에서 21년을 보낸 발베니는 특유의 꿀과 바닐라, 잘 익은 사과의 향을 정갈하게 풀어낸다. 47.8도의 매끄러운 술이 혀를 감싸며 오렌지 마멀레이드와 시나몬, 부드러운 오크의 단맛이 균형 있게 드러난다. 과하지 않은 산뜻함 속에 꿀의 결이 선명하게 자리 잡고, 따뜻한 향신료의 여운이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it is more Balvenie than Shiraz if you ask me, and-we-shall-not-complain. Plums, mirabelles, zwetschke (damson), plus vanilla and croissants au beurre, also quinces and yellow flowers as well as a little nougat and popcorn. Hurray, how very Balvenie!
restaurant Palate
you do feel an unusual peony and cherry-led spiciness at first, with wee touches of red bell pepper too, but once again Balvenie's taking over, with lovely plums coated with a little coconut and nutmeg, plus pomegranate sherbet. Yep. To be honest the whole tends to become a tad unbalanced after fifteen seconds, not too sure about this coconut either, but there, it's good fun and life needs differences. Vive les differences!
timer Finish
medium, always with these pomegranates, this bell pepper, these touches of juniper, rosé gin…
