Van Wees are a highly respected Dutch importer, distributor, retailer and bottler. They are famous for their 'The Ultimate' range. Only good things to say and write about Van Wees… Colour: gold. Nose: it's doing just fine after the dazzling 2002, with just a little more 'mustard and gunpowder', a combo that's absolutely not unseen in sherried Benromach. Let's say it, many sherried Benromachs are a little sulphury, but you could say that's an asset and in any case, only a matter of style and taste. New wellies. With water: down to the core, brilliant! Grapefruit, mud, porridge, beach sand, game, grouse, truffle, sulphur… Mouth (neat): it's on a different 'axis of good', rather on the Ben Nevis to Fettercairn to Glenturret to Jura line this time. Meats, sriracha, hoisin, mustard, old walnuts, snuff, pepper, chocolate… With water: salty bouillon, lemon juice, a touch of horseradish, a muddy side… Finish: long, fat, waxier, saltier again… Comments: just a happy mess, feels a bit like France just now. In the own words of Aphrodite's Child, love, love love love.
