Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
연한 살구빛이 잔 안에서 곱게 감돈다. 글렌드로낙 18년은 유러피언 오크에서 숙성한 뒤 마르살라 호그스헤드에서 마무리해 로제 와인을 떠올리게 하는 향을 낸다. 46도 아래로 라즈베리와 붉은 자두, 작약 꽃내와 풍선껌의 개성이 겹쳐진다. 한 모금 머금으면 블러드 오렌지와 크랜베리, 석류의 상큼한 단맛이 매끄럽게 흐르고 생강과 풋풋한 향신료가 조인다. 여운은 붉은 과일과 초록빛 향신료를 남기며 개운하게 잦아든다.
AITasting 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
