Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
antique, definitely. A lot of wax polish, mead and nectar at first nosing but all that tends to partly disappear, leaving room for a little marzipan and apple pie. Maybe there’s a little cardboard behind all that as well, some tea and touches of ashes. All that is just whispered so is it very delicate or too shy? As often, the answer will be found on the palate…
restaurant Palate
starts very well (it’s not without reminding me of some old Italian Macallans by G&M), with many stewed fruits on a bed of soft spices (cinnamon) and liquorice, the whole becoming drier and ashy/chalky after just a two or three seconds. There’s also something smoky but it becomes even ashier after a while. Not much body ad almost no oomph in fact
timer Finish
short and thin, but pleasantly resinous/sappy. Cough lozenges? Amusing touches of spicy mushrooms in the aftertaste. Blue foot?
