: Yes, I think this is the best compromise for the seemingly contradictory expression /// Your first suggestion was best; 'goût' is redundant...

: I dismissed this at ffirst as being too much of a contradiction, but I think it's starting to grow on me, and I certainly can't think of anything better.

Hmmm. Not easy because full-bodied is for wine, for example.

Sorry, I first translated it into the wrong language.

: If this is indeed the basic salmon itself, I find it difficult to believe it would have a 'seasoned' flavour

Tony M
: I don't believe 'spiced' applies appropriately to salmon, and the refs. you give mean 'with added spice'; 'corsé' as applied to coffee or wine, for example, does not mean spiced...

corsé as applied to wine ... means "full-bodied", I was talking about a dish, not a drink!

French term (edited):
go�t d�licatement cors�
slightly more pronounced flavour
hoping there are others that are less so and more subtly flavoured!
