Serge Valentin (87)

Colour: white wine.

Nose: typical Clynelish but with a good dose of vanilla and rather less minerals than usual. It's fairly medicinal as well, grassy and, of course, waxy but not that waxy. Other than that, we have apples and gooseberries, a little rhubarb, lime, maybe beach sand… As often, quality's high and this nose is pretty flawless.

Mouth: excellent attack, slightly peaty, very lemony, very mineral this time, peppery… The same kinds of fruits as in the nose are back, rhubarb, more lemon, even more lemon, green cardamom, not too ripe pears… Having said that, it's not a boldly waxy Clynelish. So a Clynelish that's not the most Clynelish of all Clynelishes.

Finish: rather long, spicier, nervous, grassy. A little menthol, white pepper and marzipan in the aftertaste.

Comments: again, not the most Clynelishesque of them all but quality remains very high. And there is some riesling.
