Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

we’re having a rather chocolaty sherry this time, at least at first sniffs, then more plums, raisins and dried dates. Also touches of leather and ‘old’ walnuts but no gunpowder/struck matches/you name that. Overripe apples that hint at the 1994. Pretty elegant sherry. After a few minutes: some kind of chocolate and walnut liqueur? Also more oranges…

restaurant Palate

creamy, rich, balanced, starting with unexpected strawberries and maybe even a little bubblegum, then oranges again, a peppery kind of liquorice, some sweet cider and maybe salty touches. Some raisins too

timer Finish

medium long, with touches of coffee, probably from the sherry. More oranges in the aftertaste as well as a little ginger tonic
