Nose
A little closed. Light with some fruity sweetness — rosehip syrup? but also a dusty attic mustiness. Palate
Better than the nose, quite liquorice. Smooth with decent balance. Finish
Cranberry jelly. Comment
Insubstantial.
Arthur Motley
Nose
A sweet, perfumed cakiness, like a battenburg or a sweet sponge. Treacle. Sweet egginess, like a custard tart or scambled egg even. Stewed plums or stewed rhubarb. Palate
Very sweet and then grassy. Finish
A little burnt caramel. Comment
Pleasant, sweet and light in character despite its deep colour.
