In the beginning, the nose is driven by strong Sherry notes. Gets better & more harmonious with air. The Sherry turns into curry plant, fennel blended with hints of apricot & yellow stone fruit. Like a laser beam on the palate, very salty, vibrating and grasping. Long finish. A real "unicorn" producer, great to have the opportunity to taste this wine.

Post Christmas Tasting (@Private location): What an interesting wine! Thanks Tom for the experience! Clear, pale amber color. Clean, medium+ intense, fully developed nose. I think you either love it or hate it. Smoke, curry notes, yeast. Bone dry, medium acidity, body and alcohol (12,5%). Medium+/pronounced, complex aromas of nuts (walnuts), yeast, sweet-sour curry. Very interesting mix of a good Oloroso Sherry and a Vin Jaune. These aromas linger on and on in the long finish. Special and certainly not for everyone but if you like this style you will definitively love it. Has years of development ahead!

Le commentaire ne plaira pas à tout le monde, mais je me retrouve plus dans l'univers de la bière que dans celui du vin. C'est incontestablement original, mais est-ce que j'aime ça ?

Walnuts, dried herbs, candied yellow fruits. Complex palate, saltiness, well-integrated acidity, bitter fruits. Fascinating wine.
