Dave Broom
72- Nose
- Crumbs in a biscuit tin. Straw. In time becomes more substantial:poached pears and cream quality. Peach stone. Flattened by water which also introduces a light linseed oil note. A little lacking in vibrancy.
- Palate
- Disappoints on the nose but makes up for it on the palate with a slow,juicy centre showing honey,cling peaches and pecan nuts.
- Finish
- Bread crust.
- Comment
- Just lacks brio.
Rob Allanson
71- Nose
- Initially close but after a while opens into a wonderful rich herbal bouquet laced with fruit soda bread.
- Palate
- Quite thin. A little herbal note comes through but I found it a let down after the vibrancy of the nose.
- Finish
- Malty,short almost not there.
- Comment
- Promised loads on the nose but has not really delivered.
