Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

it has troubles talking at this very high strength, let’s add water right away (but it seems that there are nice notes of apricots). With water: listen, I’d love to bash this crazy wine finishing (and god knows Yquem is great wine) but contrarily to ‘Tokaj’ versions that were really too much, this is very, very enjoyable. Not sweetish at all, rather balanced, kind of phenolic, superbly fruity, on apricots, ripe bananas, quinces and herbal tea (camomile) and then marzipan and nougat. Works very well (I’m afraid)

restaurant Palate

punchy, sweet and fruity, all on pineapple drops and hot lemon marmalade. Very hot! With water: Edradour’s slightly ‘tricky’ character shines through for a short while but then it’s all bananas flambéed, tinned pineapples, brioche and apricot pie, with also quite some honey

timer Finish

long, a little more vegetal and spicy now, as well as a little salty
