Serge Valentin (85)

Colour: pale amber. Nose: very rounded attack, starting very nutty and malty, on some bold notes of walnuts and walnut liqueur (nusswasser), hot praline, baked pears topped with caramel. Gets then quite flowery (peonies), with also some fresh vanilla. A very nice nose, very osy, very classical and perfectly balanced. Mouth: oh, this time I feel it lacks some body, and the attack is sweet but unusually grainy. But it quick to adjust its aim a bit, with again quite some praline, fudge, caramel, honey We probably like more oomph but it a very nice all-rounder, although the recent 1972 (see above) is much, much better in my opinion. Anyway, 85 points for the 1973.
