Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
amber/brown with red hues
air Nose
aw! Once again, there’s a lot of sherry but this time we’re much more on old Chambertin, with these exceptional notes of wild cherries and a smokiness that’s not to be found in Springbank anymore. You may add to that a litany of ‘secondary’ aromas such as prunes, cigar box, ‘old Jaguar’ (sounds very pre-credit crunch, doesn’t it!), horse saddle, black truffles (and something petrol-like), old books… Better stop now
restaurant Palate
punchy and invading, thick and oily yet elegant, still on crystallised cherries and prunes, with quite some chocolate, Grand-Marnier, hints of malt extract (just hints!), stout and burned cake (brownies). More cherries after that and an unexpectedly growing fruitiness (even more cherries!)
timer Finish
medium long, with a very faint sourness that may be this one’s only flaw – and a tiny one
