Dave Broom
87- Nose
- Aromatic with good American oak notes. Hot gorse, drying lilac, scented grasses and frangipan. Mango, pineapple. Complex, elegant.
- Palate
- Supple and silky. Mouthfilling. Peaches and yoghurt, orange blossom, light acacia honey mixed with nutmeg.
- Finish
- Chocolate. Sensual. Amazing length.
- Comment
- Needs time to grow in the glass. A dream.
Arthur Motley
87- Nose
- A sensuous dessert-like experience. Amaretto biscuits and apricot jam. Trifle with good custard and raspberry soaked sponge. High bourbon impact. Orange flavoured Turkish Delight.
- Palate
- The fruitiness doesn't follow to the palate, but an attractive dram with orange and grippy oak.
- Finish
- Dry leafiness.
- Comment
- A vibrant and enticing nose. Really good stuff though.
