Martine Nouet
70- Nose
- Woody. Overcooked marmalade. Walnut stain. Candied orange.
- Palate
- Aggressively bitter. This is a wood infusion. The skin of a fresh walnut.
- Finish
- Bitter with a touch of liquorice (but the bitter root).
- Comment
- Bitter all the way. No balance. One dimensional. To try only if you are a ‘woodfreak'. Surprisingly, water tones the bitterness down.
Rob Allanson
75- Nose
- Erm...sherry. Then creamy toffee and rich fudge. A little dried orange peel and mango.
- Palate
- Sweet and that fudge note comes through. Seems to have a bitter burnt wood tone to it too.
- Finish
- Drying and moreish.
- Comment
- One for the sherry heads, but pleasant enough.
