- Nose
- Pear drops, but no harshness. Clean, delicious. Fresh dessert apple. Calvados.
- Palate
- Crème Anglaise? Non! Ecossaise. Sweetish. Coconut ice. Toothsome.

- Firm but gentle. Seductive. Fragrant.

- Attractive and gentle. Very creamy. Double cream in fact. Light, oaty/ovaltine notes. Fairly sweet. Reminds me of Old-Fashioned lemonade. Time brings out a touch of parmesan.

- Finish
- Gentle and smooth.
- Comment
- Creamy soft and easy to drink. A good everyday drinker.
