Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
deeper, more profoundly earthy, chocolatey and much more meaty than the others. Pencil erasers, game pie, beef stock, treacle, Maggi seasoning and lamp oil. Rather fatter and more swollen than the others with a nice touch of natural grubbiness about it. With water: these more meaty and brusque earthy tones shy away and we’re left with more direct syrupy sweetness, fresh pastries, lemon cough drops and sweet coffee
restaurant Palate
a Snickers bar! All peanuts, milk chocolate, caramel sauce, treacle pudding, banoffee pie and some rather decadent custard made with posh dessert wine. Great syrupy texture and notes of caramelising brown sugar and toffee apples. With water: again a little more direct and classical. Clean notes of fresh brown bread, toasted seeds, bitter cocoa powder, golden syrup on toast and some darker fruit preserves
timer Finish
good length, slightly bitter and herbal with notes of liquorice, prune juice, dark chocolate and game meats
