향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
노즈를 여는 것은 발베니 특유의 꿀과 퍼스트필 올로로소가 더한 건과일 향이다. 17년 숙성한 셰리 오크는 43도의 절제된 도수에서 꿀의 단맛과 셰리의 깊이가 균형 있게 짜인다. 팰럿은 꿀과 건포도, 구운 견과류로 발전하며 스페이사이드다운 부드러운 질감이 중심을 잡는다. 피니시는 마른 과일과 옅은 오크 향신료가 적당히 이어진다. 꿀과 셰리의 조화가 단단하게 짜인 클래식한 보틀링이다.

cooked apple, cinnamon, old wood, dust mop, hints of sherry… not much else. Quite weak, again

very smooth but ‘skimpy’. Hints of white pepper, getting dusty and drying. Short finish, on wood and crystallized orange. Well, it’s not too bad, but you won’t remember it for long. 77 points . MUSIC - Four very young English female musicians playing a blend of Brit-rock and electonica and sometimes singing in French... That should have kept me away and I still wonder how and why I managed to put my hands - sorry, my ears on Electrelane 's stuning composition The Valleys , where the simplest drumbeat ever and hypnotic organ loops underline two choirs (female and male) responding to each other. Listen to it, I think it's stunning. September 24, 2004 MUSIC - Haunting accordion, cello or violin, excellent orchestrations, a nice voice even if not her main asset, that's Nina Nastasia , from New York City. Yet another skillful and very interesting young singer! Have a listen to either the powerful This is what it is or Stormy Weather (mp3) and 'you'll see what you'll hear!' ;-) MALTS - TWO BALVENIES Balvenie 17 yo 'Islay Cask' (43%, OB) An interesting 94-casks cuvee I had never tasted before - I know I'm a little late. Some loved it, some hated it. It's been finished for 6 months in some Islay casks - some say it was Ardbeg, some others say Laphroaig, and the last said it was a blend of various distilleries, including Lagavulin. Some have also argued this one isn't a single malt anymore, but rather a vatting of different distilleries. Well, let's just check what 'the glass' says
