Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
well, this is the opposite of the 1990. It’s maybe quite as austere as the latter but the general profile is much cleaner, yet complex and rich, ranging from superb mineral notes to lemon and orange marmalades. Notes of lemon balm, fresh ginger, cardamom. Back to lemon after that (fresh juice). Great Rosebank that reminds me of some much older bottlings on the nose (the old official 20 CS for example)
restaurant Palate
creamy, zesty, superbly lemony and spicy. Unusual spices that is, with quite some cardamom again, fresh pepper, even something that may taste like truffles (or maybe not…), ginger and lemon marmalade… It’s a tad richer than a ‘usual’ Rosebank in fact
timer Finish
very long, very lemony and very spicy, remaining very warming
