Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Nose
Grassy, minty. Vanilla merges through in sweet waves, until flooding the lighter vegetal notes. Butterscotch. Develops on pudding notes.
Palate
Sweet, velvety. Lasciviously unfolding biscuity sweet flavours. Slightly over the top.
Finish
Dry mintiness with a gingery touch.
Comment
Interesting but a sweet note too far maybe but the finish gets a grip on itself and leaves a clean minty freshness. Recommended for sweet tooth.

Dave Broom

Nose
Yet another light one. Hawthorn cream and with water wet cardboard.
Palate
Better than the nose with surprising grip more oak than you’d guess from that etheral nose.
Finish
Mouth drying. Cigarette smoke.
Comment
There’s just nothing to get excited about here.
