Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 벤리네스가 셰리 버트에서 15년을 보낸 향답게 건포도와 흑설탕, 다크 초콜릿이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 64.6도라는 높은 도수가 향을 빽빽하게 응축시켜 가죽과 정향, 볶은 커피로 발전한다. 팰럿은 풀바디로 입을 채우며 건자두와 호두, 향신료의 풍미가 명확하게 드러나고 구조가 단단하다. 피니시는 쌉싸름한 카카오와 셰리의 단맛이 길고 묵직하게 이어진다. 더글라스 랭이 골라낸 고도수 셰리의 위력이 또렷한 한 잔이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
ah, no. No Bovril, no Maggi, no lovage, no soy sauce, no beef stock, rather pencil shavings and vegetal varnish, plus cakes straight from the oven. It’s not that it would burn your nose, but I’m sure it’ll benefit from a few good drops of proper water. With water: a walk in the meadows and the woods after a good shower. Mushrooms, moss, leaves, chestnuts, old branches…
restaurant Palate
meaty and earthy and mentholated oranges and cakes, perhaps, plus a lot of rubber. Chewing rubber bands dipped in Grand-Marnier… or something. Quick… With water: adios rubber, welcome deep-roasted nuts, burnt cakes, leather, and salty meat soups. And menthol!
timer Finish
very long, meaty and grassy, a bit sour, and mentholated. Pine resin and salty chicken soup in the aftertaste
