Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

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.

Dave Broom

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 pu-er aged tea.
Finish
Ash and then ginger.
Comment
An amazing array of flavours and aromas from one so young.
