Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
very much in the style of cask #5920, which is normal I suppose, although there is a little more earth and wet sand, as well as fresh almonds. Very, very nice, maybe the most complex of them all (I mean, the bourbons). With water: ditto. Nice notes of a mineral Riesling (smoked, ha ha)
restaurant Palate
indeed, the richest, the most citrusy and simply the most pleasing. Icing sugar and limoncello on a bed of ashes. With water: lovely profile, not far from the official CS in my opinion but maybe a tad ashier
timer Finish
long and very ashy. Walnut skins? Earth and roots in the aftertaste, as well as a little more lemon
