Tasting Notes

Colour

dark red amber

air Nose

the oak’s a little more present, and there are rubbery notes that make the whole less ‘clean’. Struck matches, brake pads after Monza (whatever!)... A different cooperage? With water: truffles and gas. That’s right

restaurant Palate

not an easy one for sure. First, it’s extremely strong. And second, these very leathery notes, bordering on sulphur and graphite oil are not everyone’s favourites. On the other hand, I also find notes of old Cuban cigar, which is just very ‘especial’. With water: falls apart. Kirsch in a blend of chicken soup and coffee. You’re right

timer Finish

long, very leathery, with ‘weird’ spices and quite some tobacco
