RENEGADE 3 ans 2020 Habitation Velier

Nose : Rich, heady. The floral (dandelion), honeyed, medicinal (ointment) and vanilla first nose is gradually filled with the exquisite fragrances of gum arabic. Allowed to breathe, fresh cane juice floods the aroma palette with its milky (coconut) and exotic (pineapple, kiwi) scents. Note of vetiver.

Appearance : Vieil or.

Palate : Lively, slender. The menthol attack is spicy (curry, cardamom, cinnamon), rooty (ginger) and syrupy (hot cane sugar). On the mid-palate, vanilla pod and squares of dark chocolate form a perfect pairing. A lovely rich bitterness.

Overall : Long, creamy. The start of the finish becomes deliciously tannic and fibrous (cane). The salty after-taste reveals compote (apple), saffron and autumnal (moss) dimensions. At the end of the finish, artichoke heart softens the flavour palette.
