Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

light and very grainy, as expected. Gets quite grassy (hay, heavily sugared iced tea). Dried flowers, caramel, hints of praline

restaurant Palate

aromatically weak, sweetish… Hints of lavender ice cream, pear juice, apple juice. Rather long, and slightly peppery finish. Not so bad, in the same vein as the Glen Grant 5yo. 72 points MUSIC - Recommended listening - Slither Hither (mp3) by Soul-Junk . Hip hop isn't my cup of tea at all, but free jazz (often) and experimental music (sometimes) are, and Soul-Junk's work blends all that in a very interesting and pataphysical way. The art of collage is always thrilling when made with craft, and it's the case here. Listen to it, perhaps you won't make it to 1:00, but it's going to be interesting, at least. Something (rather) new, at last! December 28, 2004 MUSIC - Recommended listening: The Jeni Fleming Trio plays the standard Invitation (mp3 - beware, it's jazz ;-). Very, very special, and very, very nice. Wow! Please buy their music if you like it. TASTING - THREE CLYNELISHES Clynelish 10 yo (43%, James McArthur, Fine Malt Selection)
