Monday, April 12, 2021 - Lovely golden. Clear. Very light and subtle mousse.
Rather tight and shy nose in the beginning (I think partly due to the temp) which opened up into a lush rich unctuous bouquet after abt 1 hour. Lots going on here - apricots, honey, hint of ginger, butter cookies. Could lose myself in this for sure.
Initial taste was very dry, typical of Pol. Much drier than the DP 90 that we had alongside. This went better with the Jap food though. But over time, just as it did with the nose, the palate filled out, gained sweetness, and had a really lovely mouthfeel. Coupled with the drier finish, this was very enjoyable indeed.
