- Nose
- Fragrant. Sandalwood. Gorse, bracken. Develops caramelised walnut and buttery notes.
- Palate
- Medium, sweetness muzzled by oak. Gingered rhubarb. More wood flavours as it opens up.
- Finish
- Pleasantly spiced but becomes bitter when water added.
- Comment
- Disappointingly on the wood side. For those who like it oaky!
- Nose
- A light, gentle nose with custard creams, lemon and with water some wood and a fruity jammy element.
- Palate
- Dry and very woody. Overpoweringly so. There's some citric, perfumed/lavender stuff trying to come out but the wood batters it over the head.
- Finish
- Dry and woody with that jammy flavour at the very end.
- Comment
- Lovely soft, vanilla nose obliterated by wood. Shame.
