Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

a rather sappy, rounded and vanilla-ed version, with a lot of custard and cake that make this baby much smoother and rounder than most of its brothers and sisters. Even the peat is kind of discreet, while there's more oysters and fresh butter. Funny whiffs of sorrel and fresh coriander in the background

restaurant Palate

we're back on the tracks now, with more peat and, above all, litres of grapefruit and lemon juice that make it very tart and nervous, not unlike the marvellous 1997 by DT. Excellent

timer Finish

long, clean, salty and limey. Some toffee in the aftertaste, as if the hogshead had been heavily recharred prior to filling
