Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
interesting. Sure there’s some wine but one can really feel the pinot noir, while I’m not sure that many finishings do resemble the wine that was used. Black cherries and strawberry jam plus a little orange juice, chocolate and black pepper. Works well so far. With water: a little eucalyptus coming through
restaurant Palate
another one that’s quite oily. As far as the profile’s concerned, it’s very unusual and, I must say, most pleasant. In fact, it tastes like some ultra-fortified semi-sweet Madeira. Sultanas, a little leather, corn syrup, honey and fruit salad. Quite a surprise (but the pinot noir is pretty unrecognisable this time). With water: the black cherries are back. Chambertin??? I’m joking…
timer Finish
quite long, rather grassier and bitterer. Stalks, grape pips
