Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Nose
Sweet. Restrained. Pine nut. Rice pudding and custard. Caramel. With a dash of water, stewed apples.
Palate
Sweet, a bit soft and watery in the middle. Toffee and honey.
Finish
Short, dry. Nutty.
Comment
Not as enticing as the older versions. Lacks depth but it has nothing to do with youth. Water kills it down.

Dave Broom

Nose
Earthy, damp bracken, pine wood, grass. Firm cereal notes. Warm, woollen hiking socks. Ovaltine. Slightly milky. Young, beginning to come together.
Palate
Nutty, crunchy, hazelnut. grass. Unctuous feel. Sweet in the centre.
Finish
Crisp. Dry grass.
Comment
Seems bulkier than I recall.
