Auch hier ist die DNA in der Nase erkennbar, Holz, Kräuter, Röstaromen - dazu tritt eine floral-parfümige Note in den Vordergrund, die leicht ins seifige übergehen. Am Gaumen leichte Zitrusfrüchte, Holz, Röstaromen, Kräuter und Heu; insbesondere rückt aber eine verstörende medizinisch-wachsige Fehlnote in den Vordergrund, die mich irritiert. Leider bleibt diese Fehlnote auch im Abgang präsent, weshalb für mich auch hier keine bessere Bewertung möglich ist.

Ungewöhnliche parfümierte Seife-Assoziationen am Gaumen. Nicht mein Fall.

Großes VSGB-Vertical-live-Tasting von und mit Luca Gargano. 22.10.2022, 16:27. 2012 war wohl eines der trockensten Jahre auf Martinique. Nase: weniger sahnig und fruchtig, eher holzig-würzig und erdig-torfig. Gedeckte Frucht Richtung Kirsche und Johannisbeere. Leicht nussig mit Pekanuss. Hinten mit ganz leicht seifig. Gaumen: erst kurz dünn, dann säuerlich salzig mit unangenehm seifigem Geschmack. Dann jedoch ein angenehmerer Wechsel über Holz und altem Kardamom-Pulver zu Lakritz, Veilchen und schließlich grünem Tee und Gras. Platz: N: 7/10 G: 4/10

Seltsam, warum bei vielen SJ dieser Serie so eine Seifen-Fehlnote vorhanden ist.

Erstes post-Corona-Tasting, bin neugierig, wie es um meine Sensorik bestellt ist. Es dominiert parfümierte Seife. Daneben schöne Holzreife, gute Trinkstärke. Das mag in der Nase gefallen. Beim Trinken stört es gehörig, sehr künstlich.

Erneut würzige Seife und erneut einfach schlecht.
