Martine Nouet
85- Nose
- Scented garden aromas: wild rose, thyme, lemon grass. Muscat grape and orange peel.
- Palate
- Bracing mouthfeel yet almost syrupy. Redcurrant. A lovely blancmange aftertaste.
- Finish
- Slightly spicy (nutmeg), even warmer with water.
- Comment
- Light, straightforward. Delicacy without mannerism. Keep it for a romantic candlelit dinner.
Dave Broom
52- Nose
- Very pale suggesting a neutral cask. Light floral/apple blossom notes and some white fruit. Delicate to the point of ethereal. Water kills it stone dead, just the aroma of dead leaves.
- Palate
- More to it than the nose suggests but that's not saying a lot. Lightly floral, but no complexity, no drive.
- Finish
- What finish?
- Comment
- Like drinking a ghost.
