DUO ARRAN 15 ANS x 10 ANS ITINERAIRES

Nose : Fine, elegant. Citrus fruits (orange, mandarin), salted butter caramel, chocolate, heady aromas (carnation, lily), and sweet spices (fresh ginger, cinnamon) form an olfactory ensemble that is both subtle and concentrated. Then, aromas of dried fruits (fig), freshly malted barley, prune, and tiger balm create a second tableau brimming with vitality.

Appearance : vieil or à reflets orangés.

Palate : Lively, precise. Revealing new citrus fruits (lemon, grapefruit), the taste palette is also marked by flavors of dark chocolate whose beautiful bitterness gives it enormous freshness and length. Gradually, notes of biscuit, oat cake, and gingerbread highlight its gourmet evolution.

Overall : Rich, smooth. With its great fullness, it invites us to delight in flavors of zucchini flower fritters, pumpkin, praline, and calisson d'Aix, absolutely delicious. At once heady (hyacinth, tuberose) and roasted (coffee), the retro-olfaction and the empty glass demonstrate remarkable complexity.

Nose : refined, fresh. Immediately evoking a verdant barley field, the aromatic palette evolves toward more minty, fruity (apple, pear), and citrusy notes. Upon aeration, soft spices (cinnamon, ginger) and more assertive ones (pepper, star anise) give it a great deal of vitality.

Appearance : or vif.

Palate : Both lively and creamy. By turns invigorating (candied lemon), tenderly malty, and freshly herbaceous (sage, chamomile), the flavor palette is a model of balance. Perfectly in keeping with the nose, it extends into delicious honeyed (acacia) and waxy notes.

Overall : Full-bodied and rich. Increasingly open, the flavor palette now displays exotic (pineapple, banana, kiwi) and vanilla tones, whose freshness of expression is matched only by their evocative power. On the retro-olfaction, delicious notes of licorice and infused verbena delicately coat the taste buds.
