77- Nose
- Peach or orange blossom. Lemon. Hazelnuts.
- Palate
- Pancakes with cream. Orangey. Buttercups. Herbal.
- Finish
- Tingly dryness.
- Comment
- Delicately balanced. Clean. Drinkable. There is an element of luxury, but never quite the frisson of luxury that the marketing implies.
Dave Broom
75- Nose
- A little soapy without water, but with attractive perfumed floral notes and a hint of tangerine. Water pulls out some butter toffee, cream and orange/mint.
- Palate
- A lovely soft, grassy start which then opens into a lovely interplay between the soft toffee centre and the high citric notes. Good weight.
- Finish
- Pretty short which lets it down a little.
- Comment
- A good mouthful. OK, its not hugely demanding but a great introduction.
