86
- Nose
- Autumnal.Charred wood,bonfire and hands plunged deep into moist leaf mould. Thick and toffeed,bold with a smoky edge Opens up to mulberry and,with water,a hint of cordite.
- Palate
- Seems old,deep and quite resinous. Dried fruits,walnut,furniture polish. A slow,elegant and natural quality to it Big tannins,but sweetness to balance.
- Finish
- Light smoke then a burst of strawberry.
- Comment
- Elegant and complex. Highly recommended.
75
- Nose
- Woody at start. Wet boards. A fungal note. Then opening on sweeter
aromas. Caramelised apple.
- Palate
- Sweet and round .A bit flat at mid palate. Then a burst of exotic fruit and
peppercorn. Passionfruit.
- Finish
- Drying on oak and spices.
- Comment
- The palate has more to deliver than the nose. But oak prevails too much.
