Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
amber/apricot
air Nose
this works! Creamy and candied, rather big at just 40% vol., but also expectedly different, even if no Port as such is detectable. Now, it is kind of winey, with hints of old sweet wine (rather white than red). Old Muscat? Also a tad mushroomy and weirdly resinous (glue, retsina wine – not that retsina usually smells like glue, mind you). Faint meatiness as well, beef jerky, Grisons meat. Fades away a bit after a few minutes. Once again, I’m curious about the palate
restaurant Palate
nope! Once again, the palate is way ‘below’ the nose even if this isn’t really chemical. Let’s say it’s pretty much on blackcurrant Jell-o and dusty old wine, getting then sort of chalky and papery. Cheap ‘chemical’ cranberry juice
timer Finish
quite long and a tad nicer now. Liquorice allsorts and blackcurrant jelly plus a little pepper and cloves
