75
- Nose
- Estery. Exotic. Ripe bananas, coconut milk. Another raw bread dough profile with a strong yeasty note.
- Palate
- Quite assertive. The alcohol bite gives a fizzy feel on the tongue. Some fruit then a cardboardy note. A phenolic hint in the back.
- Finish
- Dry, tangy with a nutty aftertaste.
- Comment
- The nose is more appealing than the palate. Water tames it.
85
- Nose
- Succulent and vibrant. Mint sauce, camphor, dessicated coconut and cocoa powder. In time, quince. Powerful.
- Palate
- Pure, sweet and tongue coating. Sour cherry, liquorice and candlewax. The note is a little like incense cut with aged tea.
- Finish
- Ash and then ginger.
- Comment
- An amazing array of flavours and aromas from one so young.
