Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

same style as the Jack at first sniffing, just tends to become rounder, with more vanilla and honey. So globally gentler, perhaps a notch more complex (I get various oils), and a tad less smoky. But other than that, they’re close. With water: gets rather very paraffiny

restaurant Palate

even closer, it’s tartier, zestier, more austere and sharper than on the nose. Very grassy and flinty, in fact, and perhaps a tad difficult. With water: hard. Clay and strong green tea, plus lemon squash. Good, it’s not exactly hard, but it’s a little difficult

timer Finish

long, with a feeling of chewing raw wool and licking limestone
