Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
hurray again, that stuff isn’t there (you know what, don’t you)! Instead, we have a general profile which is very close to that of the 1990 – no wonder -, it’s maybe just a notch more tarry/rubbery and a little less fruity. With water: this is where the 1990 and this 1989 diverge, this one remains quite dry and grassy. A feeling of agave/mescal (since we’re slowly becoming experts in agave – not!)
restaurant Palate
very good. It’s not as perfectly balanced and ‘immediate’ as the 1990, maybe because there are a few tiny-wee dirtier notes, but it’s great Bowmore and I do not get the faintest hints of geranium, lavender sweets, Parma violets or Cadum soap. There. With water: brinier. Anchovies and kippers
timer Finish
long, salty, very maritime. Beautiful lemony aftertaste
