NEISSON L'Empyreumatique Itinéraires

Nose : rich, deep. Revealing superb empyreumatic aromas of beeswax, toast, tiger balm, eucalyptus, apricot kernel, orange zest and gentian root, the aromatic palette perfectly reflects the cuvée's name. On aeration, it becomes candied (lemon, pear), balsamic (pine) and floral (lavender, iris).

Appearance : vieil or à reflets cuivrés.

Palate : lively and delicate. Tropical (banana, pineapple), in turn candied (lemon), vanilla and infused (sage, verbena), the palate differs somewhat from the nose. Saline, it opens with notes of fresh ginger and sugar cane. With time, a few medicinal flavors (band-aid, sinapism) echo the empyreumatic character of the aromatic palette.

Overall : fresh, slender. Resting on a herbaceous, root-like bitterness bursting with mineral salts, it evokes combava, pineapple and grapefruit. Floral (vetiver) and licorice-like, the retro-olfaction offers a concentrate of essential oils (rosemary, savory, geranium).
