Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아일라의 보모어가 리무쟁 보르도 와인 캐스크에 담아 익힌 1992년, 살구빛이 그 독특한 이력을 잔에 그대로 드러낸다. 16년의 향은 와인의 스파이스와 머스캣 포도, 그 아래 낯선 광물의 결을 예사롭지 않게 얽는다. 잠시 뒤면 무거운 인상이 조금씩 가라앉으며 열대 과일이 피어난다. 53.5도의 질감이 입안을 채우며 잘 익은 파인애플과 구운 향신료, 아일라 피트의 그을음을 겹겹이 풀어낸다. 위스키인지 와인인지 가늠하기 어려운 개성 위로, 와인과 연기가 뒤섞인 긴 여운이 오래 맴돈다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
apricot
air Nose
this is absolutely incredible! It really smells like a fortified Doriane (Guigal’s most famous Condrieu) and certainly not like whisky. Huge spiciness and quite some muscatty notes. The problem is that there’s also a huge lot of sulphur and even notes of ‘English’ vinegar (the one they serve with fish and chips). A very, very strange winesky. The good news is that these heavy sulphury notes do vanish a bit after a few minutes but their halo effect is so big that it’s still, say ‘unusual’. Bowmore is unrecognisable here
restaurant Palate
once again, the wine is easily detectable in itself (it’s also got something of an Alsatian pinot gris, or even malvasia), and brings some funny notes of game and roasted spices to the whole. Very ripe pineapples. Peat and pepper strike second and third, and the whole starts to work pretty well after a moment, despite some added notes of Comté cheese (or Gouda if you prefer)
