Martine Nouet
77- Nose
- Malty and nutty. Oak is well integrated. Cooked plums, marzipan. Apples drying in the attic. Mustiness and earth. Oak comes back.
- Palate
- Smooth and crisp too. Oak is more prominent but flavours are nicely intertwined. A touch of milk chocolate.
- Finish
- Dry, with a refreshing sour/bitter touch.
- Comment
- Very elegant and balanced on the nose. Oak tends to show off but the dram keeps its charm though.
Dave Broom
80- Nose
- Dried lemon peel. Fresh and floral, daffodil/iris and touches of dry malt. Shifts into tisane, straw and apple.
- Palate
- Very soft with good flow. This has more of a juicy guava like softness. Silky and almost wine like. Well integrated oak which adds a lightly spiced element.
- Finish
- White pepper.
- Comment
- Charming and well balanced.
