Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

starts leafy and leathery, grassy and a tad rubbery. Whiffs of chalk and clay, cardboard, peach leaves, green tea… Rather austere so far, without the fruity and vanilled notes that are often to be found in Arran in my experience. With water: same plus plain grass. Earth. Whiffs of cow stable as well, old wine barrel… Mind you, all that is pretty nice

restaurant Palate

many red berries plus a little rubber again on top of some vanilla and white pepper. Quite nervous. More compact than on the nose. Good body. With water: the best part now, with some strawberry jam, maybe a little mango chutney and quite some vanilla crème. Water worked very well here

timer Finish

rather long, fruity, a little bubblegummy. Pepper in the aftertaste, as often
