Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet Nose Sweet and sour. Gooseberry. Cranberry. Blancmange. A juicy fruit smoothie. Gets creamy on time. Apple toffee. Palate Smooth. An appetising sweetness releasing fruity flavours. Touch of blackcurrant. Finish Pleasantly drier. Fresh liquorice. Comment A well knitted dram. On the fruit side. More complex than it appears. Oak is well integrated. A pity such a treasure is lost!

Michael Jackson Nose Salicylic top notes. Celery? Furniture polish. Palate Chalky and thin. Chip-board. Dusty. Finish Not unpleasant. Wine like. Grape seeds? Comment Has some strange (and compelling) woody flavours. Not entirely unpleasant. If you can, try before you buy.
