Martine Nouet
77- Nose
- Nutty and spicy. Dominated but not drowned in sherry. Cherries in chocolate. Dried fruit. Kumquat.
- Palate
- Sherry leads the way. Candied chestnut. Fudge. Leather.
- Finish
- Robust. Warm. Spicy.
- Comment
- A distinguished expression of sweet Oloroso, even if it seems a bit ostentatious on the palate. For afterdinner enjoyment.
Dave Broom
80- Nose
- Sweet with toasted nuts, dried fruits and spices. Some light oaky tones and bracken. Water makes it slightly more fragrant: sweet hay, flowers, more spice.
- Palate
- A sweet yet savoury start. Caramelised fruit and nut. A good, quite chewy mid-palate but all very nicely underplayed.
- Finish
- Soft, hay-like.
- Comment
- A cracking Bladnoch. Let's have more like this.
