Tasting Notes

Colour

golden amber

air Nose

exactly that, no deep character, rather some elegant, balanced cake-iness, with pastries and breads, oriental pastries, earl grey, honey and maple syrup, roasted chestnuts, Twix, cornflakes… Things like that. Oh and barley. Just saying…

restaurant Palate

just perfect, on black nougat and rancio wine, roasted peanuts (we call them chouchous), toasted brioche and just a wee touch of rubber in the background, suggesting some poorly seasoned 'sherry' wood's been in use as well. No problems

timer Finish

rather long, rather fresh, but this sour and rubbery bitterness is gaining prominence in the aftertaste. Too bad, some well-earned points are being lost here
