Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
you cannot be more on cornflakes, ripe apples, very ripe pears, shortbread, popcorn, fresh croissants, grist and oranges. A little chalk too. Totally impeccable, no false note, no unnecessary wood or wine in the way
restaurant Palate
so good! I'm even sure it's better at 43 than it would have been at higher strengths. Notes of apples and pears again, dough, then crayons and touches of cedar shavings. There's also a very pleasant small salty touch, plus preserved peaches. Even a touch of fresh armagnac – I'm sure they haven't used armagnac but after all, Jean Boyer are located in the Landes (although not, I believe, in the armagnac-part of the Landes)
timer Finish
surprisingly long, with some honey and citrus. Awesome notes of thyme honey in the aftertaste
