Martine Nouet
70- Nose
- Light and delicate. A mouth-watering full basket of fruit. Pear, cherry, plum. Honey.
- Palate
- Does not deliver the delicacy of the nose. Sweetness ends up in softness. Pears in honey. A hint of toasted nuts.
- Finish
- Pleasantly dry. Soothing freshness.
- Comment
- Easy-going, fresh and fruity, but the palate does not reflect the liveliness of the nose.
Dave Broom
72- Nose
- Light and malty/mealy. Some citric notes (lemon/orange peel). Water opens up the nutty crackerbread maltiness alongside some dry grass and dried apple.
- Palate
- Soft with vanilla, malt, a light nuttiness and a soft mid-palate.
- Finish
- Soft and lightly fruity with a hint of chocolate.
- Comment
- Very clean, well-made and attractive.
