Nose
Intense. Oaky. Polished floor. Bee wax. Bread dough. Develops on nutty notes. An interesting complexity. Sultanas and almonds.
Palate
Big, muscular, sharp. Spices explode like fireworks. All in a tight oak frame.
Finish
Dry, spicy. Ginger, nutmeg. Dry almonds in the back.
Comment
An assertive character. A complex nose, a less enticing palate though. But water cuts the edge and makes it conversational. Needs time to “relax”.

Nose
Big on the oak, like a recently polished table. A little malt and reminiscent of an Eccles cake, buttery pastry and currants.
Palate
Crisp but then bags of spice to make the mouth water.
Finish
Lingering with spices.
Comment
Very complex and demanding, but great fun.
