Tasting Notes

Colour

pale mahogany

air Nose

very huge, highly concentrated, almost like fortified sherry, with a clear acidic/sour note in the background. Big notes of old walnuts and flor (‘taste of yellow’ as they say in French Jura) and dark chocolate. Certainly not unpleasant at this point but it’s on the palate that everything should happen. With water: ouch, it’s almost plain vinegar now. Gym socks. Now it IS unpleasant

restaurant Palate

again, this is a sherry concoction. Walnuts, cherry stem tea, blackcurrant buds and overripe strawberries. Sweeter than on the nose. With water: now it’s really ‘approachable’. Added notes of chlorophyll and dark chocolate

timer Finish

long and a tad drier
