- Nose
- Delicate, floral. Orange blossom. Apricot and almond pie cooking in the oven. Develops on toffee. A peat echo.
- Palate
- Caressing, luscious, rich. Peach melba. Floral honey. Pear drop.
- Finish
- Smooth, sensuous, deliciously lingering. Spicy dryness.
- Comment
- What a lovely nectar. Great fruit and cream combination.
80
- Nose
- Buttery yet oily. Complex notes of car mechanic workshop, coconut oil, black olives in brine. With water, goats' cheese, smoke and candied peel.
- Palate
- The oiliness shows best here giving a mouth coating texture. Lemon, light spices. Ever so slightly salty. Pure flavours.
- Finish
- That salty cheese again.
- Comment
- Fantastic balance, but uncompromising.
