Tasting Notes

Colour

dark gold

air Nose

no big sherry, but what’s there is appropriately tobacco-ish and leafy/leathery. Funnily enough, there’s the same kind of minerality as in the official 18 in the background. Other than that, we have walnuts in all their forms, as cake, as wine, au naturel, in a chicken soup… No, not in a chicken soup. With water: we recreated the OB!

restaurant Palate

oh excellent! There are obvious similarities with the official, with the same beautifully zesty and even tart profile that dominates the sherry. Lemon curd again, pink grapefruits… With water: we recreated the OB again!

timer Finish

perfect, with a little more bitter oranges this time. Balance is perfect
