Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

extremely unusual, starting with varnish and even acetone, followed by bitter almond and turpentine. It almost feels like there’s rye in there. Then come figs and walnut wine, though adding water is a must. With water: still very singular, with more wood varnish, green walnuts, and some slightly overripe apples

restaurant Palate

the cask’s influence is massive, with loads of pepper, juniper, pine sap, varnish, and those bitter almonds again. It’s rather unusual. With water: the cask’s impact becomes even more evident—pine, resins, walnuts, ink, mead, bitter almonds, amaretti biscuits…

timer Finish

long, and the almonds remain dominant. Think Italian almond liqueurs (yes, the Italians again, sacrebleu!)
