Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
not a very peaty one, not a very coastal one, and not a very fruity one. In fact it’s all pretty subtle, with notes of asparagus – which I adore - and grapefruits, plus fresh almonds and oysters. I think I like this one a lot. With water: a plateful of oysters with a little liquid smoke spread over them. And some Bowmore of course. A touch of raw wool as well
restaurant Palate
excellent. A ‘riesling’ Bowmore – or would that be Pouilly-Fumé? – with a lovely earthiness, some mandarin, passion fruits, a stony smoke, and then maybe rhubarb. No raw b*****d this time. With water: excellent balance between the fruits (don’t I find pineapples?) and the briny smoke. Also a bit of liquorice
timer Finish
quite long, a little earthier. Roots
