AMRUT 8 ans 2015 #4677 Peated Port Pipe New Vibrations

Nose : Rich, deep. Animal (bacon, leather), smoky (ashes) and deliciously fruity (apricot, mango), the first nose is impressively full. Allowed to breathe, aromas of toast, spice bread and dark chocolate bring the aroma palette lots of richness and vitality.

Appearance : Cuivre orangé soutenu..

Palate : Lively, distinguished. Magnificently herbal (cut hay), malted, smoky and animal (smoked lard), the attack is peppery and hot (Espelette pepper). The mid-palate threads its roots into a peaty soil seeped in mineral salts. The end of the palate is lightly empyreumatic (incense).

Overall : Long, concentrated. Curry flavours flood the taste buds. In the aftertaste, the port brings red and black fruits (strawberry, raspberry, bramble, cherry). At the end of the finish, notes of ylang ylang take the flavour palette East.
