Serge Valentin (89)

Colour: white wine. Nose: ah yes, herbs! Verbena, wormwood, rosemary, parsley, and even watercress, which I just adore. Gets then more ‘regular’, with a little leather and tobacco, as well as hints of dried ginger on top of a bed of vanilla. All fine. With water: grapefruits and limes! Nice margarita, I say. Mouth (neat): really super, easy, yet firm, with a creamy mouth feel. Same feeling of herbs as in the nose, then more ginger, nutmeg and white pepper from the oak, then bitter oranges. With water: it swims like Mark Spitz. No dope needed. Finish: medium, clean, lemony, and very fresh. Always an asset. Comments: really love these very fresh batches, my favourite Arrans
