86
- Nose
- Ripe, fruit cake, sherried with touches of smoke, lime and cocoa powder,
black grape pressings, panettone, crystallised fruits, and underlying
sweetness.
- Palate
- eally delivers here. Rich, with immediate smoke, lots of kumquat,
bilberry, clove, wild flower honey. Fudge like, the chewy fruit dominates
the middle of the tongue.
- Finish
- The smoke returns before honey eases through.
- Comment
- HP is on fire at the moment.
77
- Nose
- Tangy, rubbery. Burnt tyre, earth, moss. A faint citrus note in the back. Gets
biscuit on time.
- Palate
- Sweet. Velvety mouthfeel. The same rubbery note as on the nose. Develops
on mint with a touch of chocolate.
- Finish
- Not long but quite pleasant. A ginger hint.
- Comment
- Quite muscular but well structured. For a wintery day.
