I love the whiskies that display notes of sauvignon blanc, but that doesn't mean that I'm expecting some distillers to add some straight to the whiskies. NAS, sauvignon (without even knowing about its origin) and 40% vol., I can't see what could go wrong. Seriously, you never know, while the price cannot be fairer (approx. 26€)… Colour: straw. Nose: ah well, this seems to work, with these notes of granny smith and greengages upfront, then green bananas, nectarines and maybe a few rose petals and acacia blossom. Turkish delights aren't far away… You would believe this is a nice young 1970s Lowlander. Mouth: absolutely, no quibble, no complaints, this is a good fresh young malt that keeps its promises. So… a young fresh Sancerre, with white peaches, honeysuckle, pomelo, Crenshaw melon, elderflower syrup, and even a little celery. Finish: not that long but neither thin nor weak, with lemon drops and sweet lime. Fruit bonbons in the aftertaste, perhaps a little too sweet now. Comments: this is perfectly all right. God knows I was expecting much worse but remember I had only tried 25 Tamnavulins until today.
