PAPALIN 6 years HAITI ex Sherry Casks is the result of the assembly of seven barrels from three clairin producers - Sajous, Vaval, Casimir - and aged in a barrel having contained an oloroso sherry from the famous Lustau house. Its aromatic and taste palette immediately displays a maturity of expression which will never leave it throughout the tasting. Among the magnificent sequences that punctuate it, let us remember its particularly radiant rancio, its chocolatey sweetness and the oriental character of its spicy notes.
Nose: Full, distinguished. Notes of apricot rancio, oxidative (cherry in brandy) and tertiary (roasted walnut, precious wood, varnish) brilliantly underline the influence of the sherry cask. Allowed to breathe, heady scents (iris concrete, sandalwood) and caramel aromas deeply permeate the aromatic palette.
Mouth: Clean, lively. Chocolatey, the attack on the palate is rooty (ginger), medicinal (cough candy) and slightly camphorous.
Finish: Long, fluffy. Fine fruit tannins (raisin, dried fig) gently coat the taste buds. Oriental (curry, turmeric), the aftertaste becomes more powdery (cocoa). In retro-olfaction, saffron and nutmeg express the nobility of the taste palette.
