Tasting notes
Chris Goodrum (Gauntleys)
Refill Sherry
Dist: June 1990 Btl: Oct 2010
Tasted: Apr 2011
A supremely honeyed nose with some sawdusty oak, musky orange and hints of lavender oil. Seriously appealing and integrated aromas that with time show a touch of citrus conserve and honeyed almond.
The palate opens with some oily citrus fruit swirling amidst a sea of mature wood extracted notes – toffee, honey and liquorice followed by plenty of rich malt and a touch of sawdust. Very unctuous, yet the nip from the alcohol balances and allows the fresh citrus and floral spirit to show towards a violety-perfumed, rose water ‘tart’s boudoir’ (technical term!) finish.
