Wednesday, March 6, 2024 - Opened and left in bottle, then cooled again to be brought out later.

Golden appearance but no signs of premox.
Silky and fresh without being especially bright on the nose. Hints of wax and nut, honeycomb. There is a cool freshness and an elegance.

Good volume, some nut and nougat flavour, ginger - burnt biscuit, manzanilla salt and nut on the finish. Feels plenty fresh, nice acidity a little burnt hair/roasted-salted nut length... Elegant and delicate.

On return:
Some light butterscotch to the nose, butter, good lift and freshness. Some alcohol. Barest hint of burnt hair (seems to be getting cleaner as it breathes), cream, mineral pools. Clean.

Palate shows a broad silkiness, a certain voile feel; cool and quite open (hollow?), feels fresh then back to the manzanilla salt/nut thing.

Doing well later, nutty, salty and surprisingly lean, tense in part and airy.
