Tasting Notes

Colour

full amber

air Nose

classic, all on prunes and chocolate at first nosing, then we have more jams and dried fruits. Dates, figs and such. A third layer comes with subtle meaty tones, touches of gunpowder, cigar humidor and dead leaves. Great balance and elegance, it’s all soft and firm at the same time. More apricot jam after a few minutes and a huge chocolate after fifteen minutes (milk chocolate, rather Swiss I have to say)

restaurant Palate

now it became aged kirsch! Really, there are cherries all over the place, as well as ripe plums. Plum pie and even a feeling of Linzertorte. Serious, ask your Austrian friends! A little metal as well, some kind of old bottle effect?

timer Finish

a little short but always on these kirschy tones, with a soft spiciness in the aftertaste. Mulled wine, then pine resins (syrup)
