Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
I believe one never quite knows what to expect when peat meets sweet wine, and here it opens with gherkins and even a dab of horseradish and mustard, then veers off toward seaweed and samphire before landing back on Islay with ashes and tar. It’s genuinely entertaining and even thrilling to follow, if you’re willing to spare it a little of your precious time. With water: rounder, more on dried raisins, which makes sense
restaurant Palate
this time it’s the sweetness of the wine that speaks first, with muscaty overtones and touches of grenache and candied cherry… The distillate, for its part, brings in the smoke, brine and ashes. With water: the tables turn, Ardbeg reasserts itself, with pepper, brine and tar. Good fun
timer Finish
long and halfway between both components, brought together by pepper
