Martine Nouet
77- Nose
- Light sea-breeze. Touch of wet cardboard. Pine needle. Milk chocolate. Honey. Apricot jam. Cider apples. Develops on soft creamy aromas.
- Palate
- Very sweet and smooth. Pears poached in spices. Marzipan. Caramelised apples.
- Finish
- Spicy, weakening steadily. Toasted almonds. Nutty.
- Comment
- An attractive character. Too much sweetness on the palate though.
Dave Broom
80- Nose
- Gentle and rounded. New pigskin leather, dried flower. Moves into passion fruit, creamy toffee, ginger, ripe stone fruits and some light oak.
- Palate
- Good concentration: crisp cereal then runny chocolate and hazelnut, spices yet sweet and very soft.
- Finish
- Quite short, clean, spicy.
- Comment
- Just a tiny splash of water is needed. A lovely drink.
