Tasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
typical sherried Mortlach, and big time! Starts with struck matches – which is absolutely not a bad thing in this context, I insist, no rotten truffles or brand new rubber boots and such -, gunpowder (same comments), flints and roasted chestnuts, with then in the background, prunes, chocolate, leather and that very typical meaty or even gamey profile. With water: becomes more herbal, on parsley and chives, plus rocks and clay, then quite a lot of beef stock. Old wine cellar
restaurant Palate
a rich and extremely spicy attack, on peppered ham and then even more chestnuts than in the nose. Glazed chestnuts? Loads of that, and then a little caraway, liquorice and… yeah, chestnut honey. With water: more fruits now, Seville oranges, dried bananas…
timer Finish
long, with the pepper, ginger and caraway back in the aftertaste
