Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet Nose Fruity. A touch of rose scent. Sweet vanilla rises up with a hint of marzipan. Apple skin. Palate Sweet but crisp. Peach cooked in vanilla. Dusty spices. Finish Dry, spicy, quite lingering. Comment Probably rich in rye. Quite a nice sweet and sour profile. With a good oaky frame. An unusual taste which reminds French gin spirit.

Dave Broom Nose Red grape, fruit kernel, quite lean. Citrus zest, touch of lavender and a little metallic. Water makes it akin to cold stewed tea. Firm. Green. Palate You almost don’t notice it in the mouth to begin with. Dumbed down with water. Bland. Finish Firm and a touch edgy. Comment Trying to please too many people therefore has no individuality, other than aggression.
