Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
not pink, rather apricoty/salmony. What we call ‘onion skin’ in wine
air Nose
the vinosity is huge. This is like nosing rosé de Provence, almost, which goes well with the colour. Raspberries all over the place, whiffs of peonies, a little bubblegum… A very funny, very fresh and fruity nose, but we’re quite far from malt whisky. Agreed, not obligatorily a problem… Now the malt comes out after five minutes, while the fruits are fading away
restaurant Palate
same feeling, starts very sweet, with a grassy maltiness covered with raspberry jelly and blood orange juice, cranberries, pomegranates… and becomes maltier after a few minutes, with some green spices, some ginger, a touch of horseradish… All that gives it a kind of sourness
timer Finish
of medium length, rather green, rather mustardy. Chlorophyll
