82
- Nose
- Raspberry sweeties, a little yeastiness and a whole bag of lemon sherberts.
- Palate
- Citric, malty round texture and a grassy finish.
- Finish
- Utterly cleansing dryness with a grassy bitterness.
- Comment
- Cute as a button.
85
- Nose
- Fragrant. Stewed fruits, daffodil, yellow fruit pastille, orange pith, pineapple cubes, barley sugar, cut grass. Blackboard dusters, powdered ginger/ginger beer (a whisky mule?). A little sappy.
- Palate
- This is where it delivers, the sappiness mellows into late spring blossom and white fruits. Like sticking your head into a bouquet of flowers.
- Finish
- Gentle fruit.
- Comment
- Another which manages to be both delicate but complex. The best balanced on show.
