Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

I knew this one was great. Amazing pineapples, mangos, fresh Sauternes, rose petals, then drops of caraway liqueur, embrocations, late-harvest gewürztraminer… And a little barley as well as a little chocolate. They chose it very carefully, for their 10th birthday

restaurant Palate

a tad more flinty and nutty, with notes of old amontillado, walnut, then ganache, with touches of rancio, a little leather and tobacco, some pepper… We’re almost in Jerez (would love being in Jerez just now, but why am I telling you this?)

timer Finish

medium, very walnutty and oloroso-y. Remember, proper oloroso ought to be bone dry
