Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
it’s a very flinty and grassy one, with very little fruit and not even much wax this time. Apple peelings, fresh walnuts, rocks, clay, leather and shoe polish. Austere, but beautifully austere. With water: same, plus ‘a walk in the forest under the rain’ (make that moss, fern and mushrooms)
restaurant Palate
well, all the fruits that weren’t in the nose are on the palate. Oranges, butter pears, juicy red apple… There’s also some kirsch and then litres of Williams pear eau-de-vie, with a dash of black pepper. Again, little wax and in that sense, it’s pretty un-Clynelish. With water: same again, water doesn’t change it much. Maybe a little more grass and a salty touch
timer Finish
long, half grassy, half fruity, with some pepper and nutmeg in the aftertaste
