ENMORE 34 ans 1988 New Vibrations Silver Seal

Nose : Rich, deep. On the first nose, a magnificent fruity rancio lights up the aroma palette, revealing candied orange and apricot, dark chocolate, ripe mango, drying dates, lime blossom honey, a combination of lavender and geranium scents, cinnamon powder, flambeed banana and incense...

Appearance : Cuivre orangé soutenu.

Palate : Dynamic, full. The vanilla and herbal (mint, lemon balm) attack is also unctuously liquorice, fibrous (sugar cane) and rooty (gentian). At times evoking an old Chartreuse, the flavour palette is hydrated with bay leaf, thyme and oregano infusions.

Overall : Long, fleshy. Recreating the rancio character from the nose, the start of the finish is apricoty, mineral (slate) and exotic (persimmon, guava). Next, iris butter and salted butter caramel flavours highlight the after-taste’s extreme concentration. On the retro-nasal olfaction, geranium fragrances fill the air.
