Malternative Belgium La Roseraie 40,2%

Another HRR bottled by Pieter: La Roseraie ! 1911 and Borderies…

Colour: Amber, old gold lights. Irregular medium tears.

Nose: Full of warm spices at first. Then you get a great amount of jammy notes, mainly on plum and pear. Stunning perfume with air! Very promising!

Mouth: Oily thick texture. Dry aftertaste on violet and cola sweets. Yummy acidulous notes. I just wrote “crazy palate !!!” then. 

Last Notes: Elegant and complex with air. Mesmerizing fruity notes again. Precise and perfectly delivered, which is remarkable regarding the low ABV. Crazy Borderies.

Just one question: can you really go back to any random Borderies after tasting a gem like this one?

Whole tasting session
