Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
셰리 캐스크와 버번 캐스크를 함께 쓴 이 발레친 2013은 에드라두어의 피트를 두 우드가 나란히 감싼 보틀링이다. 캐스크의 흔적 위로 살구와 잘 익은 바나나, 모과의 향이 피어나고 그 아래 은근한 피트와 마지팬의 달큰함이 스민다. 46도의 부드러운 몸집이 혀를 채우며 파인애플과 레몬 마멀레이드, 꿀의 풍미를 편다. 피트와 과일이 뒤섞인 여운에 옅은 향신료와 소금기가 감돌며 길게 이어진다.
AITasting 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
