Tasting Notes

Colour

mahogany/coffee

air Nose

hello? This one’s more minimal, probably more elegant, and certainly more austere than 2013’s winner. A bit of pencil shaving, blackcurrant jelly, dark bitter chocolate, very old Madeira, and then some fantabulous notes of Chambertin or other great pinot noir. Really, cherries, civet cat, moss and all that. With water: these notes of old balsamico come out, a bit of wood (shavings), parsley, bone marrow in bouillon (yum), thuja wood…

restaurant Palate

oh this is strong! Huge pepper on massive cassis jam and more pepper… I think water is needed. Urgently. With water: perfect. Orange liqueur, ginger, a bit of oak, herbs (chives and parsley), beef bouillon and other soups, crème de cassis… Great cask

timer Finish

long, splendidly bittersweet, with bitter oranges in the aftertaste
