Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 들어 한 바퀴 돌리면 진한 적황색 술이 잔 안에서 천천히 회전한다. 코끝으로 가져가면 셰리 캐스크가 남긴 건포도와 무화과, 오렌지 껍질 향이 깊게 솟아오른다. 한 모금 머금으면 29년의 시간이 빚은 매끄러운 질감 위로 흑설탕과 말린 과일, 다크 초콜릿이 진하게 흐른다. 시그나토리가 병입한 이 1975년 빈티지 글렌리벳은 53.9도의 힘과 노숙의 깊이를 함께 보여준다. 삼키고 나면 셰리의 달콤쌉싸름한 기운이 혀끝에 오래 맴돈다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
starts on an interesting smokiness and hints of natural lavender plus lots of vanilla. Quite powerful but balanced. Then it switches to rather heavy notes of liquorice and aniseed as well as small cider apples and walnuts. Keeps developing on toasted oak, nougat, a little toffee and hints of nutmeg… Also thyme and rosemary, chives, fresh coriander smoked tea… The smokiness keeps underlining the whole. A very, very nice nose, playful and very entertaining. I like it!
restaurant Palate
the attack is bold, oily and powerful but not pungent, extremely sweet and fruity with lots of ripe pineapples, bananas flambéed and a little kiwi that makes it quite playful (slight acidity). Goes on with lots of vanilla crème and all sorts of fruits liqueurs (apricot like they make in Holland, Parfait Amour, triple-sec…) with a nice oaky backbone and quite some spices coming through after a moment (green curry). Also crystallized ginger
timer Finish
very long, with a nice and unexpected bitterness that counterbalances the sweetness (strawberry sweets). Lots of pepper as well. This ‘new style’ woodsky has been perfectly ‘crafted’, that’s for sure. A success, much better than the first version I think. 89 points (just a little more complexity would have propelled it towards 90+ points). Glenlivet 1975/2006 (54%, Berry Bros & Rudd, cask #10846)
