Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 포트 파이프에서 온 붉은 베리와 잘 익은 자두, 글렌파클라스 특유의 진한 셰리풍 몰트가 함께 두드러진다. 팰럿은 48.6도의 도수로 다크 베리와 건포도, 오크의 향신료가 균형이 단단하게 발전한다. 27년의 긴 숙성과 포트 파이프가 붉은 과일의 결을 또렷이 더한다. 크리스마스 에디션다운 이 보틀링은 피니시에서 마른 과일과 향신료가 길고 진하게 이어진다.
AITasting 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
