Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
initial notes of coffee-schnapps, or even raspberry eau-de-vie followed by chocolate stuffed with raisins, then the usual green walnut liqueur (or nocino) and hints of tomato leaves. It’s quite soft for now, despite the high alcohol content, and well integrated. With water: it remains soft, moving towards chocolate dessert cream, Nutella, and kirsch
restaurant Palate
much more powerful on the palate, rather understandably, with marmalade, a small moka-spoonful of raspberry jelly, sultanas, coffee again, even Nescafé (found only in hotel rooms without espresso machines, right?), and definitely chocolates filled with liqueur or brandy. One is reminded of the excellent RumbaPfaumle from Kastner. With water: very good, very classic, rather mature for its young age. Lovely citrus notes in the background
timer Finish
continues on citrus, some candied, with a surprising salinity in the aftertaste
