Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 건포도와 자두로 열리지만 곧 허브와 발사믹, 흙내음 같은 복합적인 뉘앙스로 발전한다. PX와 올로로소 셰리를 쓴 글렌드로낙 리바이벌답게 다층적인 셰리 캐릭터가 드러난다. 팰럿은 46도에서 마른 건포도와 모카, 초콜릿, 브랜디 같은 체리가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 15년 숙성이 준 앤티크한 셰리 단맛과 타닌이 균형을 이룬다. 피니시는 길지 않지만 깨끗하며 라즈베리 잼과 다크 초콜릿이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full amber
air Nose
starts well on raisins and prunes but it’s soon to get rather weird, with herbal (nice!) and cheesy notes (hard in this context). Imagine a combination of parsley/sage with gym socks and camembert. Gets even mouldier then, all on old rotten wood (old abandoned wine barrels), saltpetre and mushrooms (say, oyster mushrooms). It has its moments (nice balsamic notes) but the whole is frankly too shaky for my taste, even if it does settle down after a good twenty minutes (on walnuts)
restaurant Palate
I must say this is nicer now, even if the attack is a little thin. Dry raisins (large black ones), mocha, chocolate, cherries in eau-de-vie, toffee… Not very complicated but the style is very nice, kind of antique, sometimes closer to some brandy
timer Finish
not long but clean and all on raspberry jam and dark chocolate this time
