Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
very typical, very expressive, starting on a blast of honey, vanilla, ‘yellow flowers’ and straight oak. The honey gets then more vivid, so to speak, with also quite some apricots, mirabelle plums and a little menthol. The oak is always quite loud but it’s a very nice oak, no plankish notes here. Keeps developing after quite some time, with notes of tea, maybe a little ripe banana as well as bergamots. High quality
restaurant Palate
creamy and rather nervous, starting on many garden fruits as well as quite some tangerine and other citrus fruits. Even hints of cranberry juice. All that is coated with spicy oak, white pepper, cloves, ginger, cinnamon…
timer Finish
rather long, with the spices to the front and notes of bitter oranges in the background
