Pleasant nose. But also again unusual soap associations on the palate.

In der Nase noch halbwegs gefällig, obwohl auch hier schon Anklänge der seifigen Fehlnote erkennbar sind. Eben diese kommt am Gaumen nochmal deutlich zum Tragen, auch wenn sie nicht gänzlich überlagernd wirkt. Trotzdem bleibt festzuhalten, dass sich echter Genuss nicht einstellen will. Schade.

Yikes, this one is even worse than the previous one. I thought I got a soap flavour from the previous one but on this one it's pretty clear.

In der Nase geröstete Haselnüsse, Nougat, Tabak, grasige Frische und - Überraschung - Parfum/Seife. Wääh! Im Mund glaubt man, ein Stück Lavendelseife zu lutschen. Dazu noch ein Überfluss Tannine… Gefällt er mir in der Nase sehr gut, die Alterskurve scheint hier am Zenith, schlägt dann im Mund die dieser Serie eigene Fehlnote durch. Da ist was schiefgegangen.

Großes VSGB-Vertical-live-Tasting von und mit Luca Gargano. 22.10.2022, 16:33. Im Gegenteil zu 2012, war 2010 sehr regnerisch mit Hurrikans. Nase: holzig-würzig, Mandarine und Zitrone mit etwas Essig, Karamell und Toffee, ausgewogen und rund, hinten etwas Maggi. Gaumen: holzig, würzig, seifig, Lakritz, über Zitrone hin zum Grasigen. Platz: N: 2/10 G: 3/10
