Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it's big and it's rather a leafy and leathery kind of sherry, with flints in the background as well as herbal teas and stems (cherry, for example). So no roundness so far, although there are a few raisins here and there. Moderately austere. Wee notes of mashed potatoes after ten minutes. With water: more grassy notes, grains... And even less obvious sherry
restaurant Palate
same first feelings, it's rather leafy, but then we find more eaux-de-vie such as kirsch and quite some bitter oranges. Maybe a tad pungent and biting. With water: opens out! Oranges, drops of brine, drops of Campari, a little fresh cardamom, maybe... Much to my liking but water was needed
timer Finish
long, with more spices again, pepper, more bitter oranges, drops of quinine tonic wine
