Dave Broom
70- Nose
- Chicory,Camp coffee and masses of dried fruit; a whiff of Lea & Perrins, then boot polish and burnt timbers.
- Palate
- Immediate tannic grip.This is all leather and treacle combined (which brings a somewhat alarming image to mind) Any sweetness which was once there has long gone. There's just a hit of rancio and a little clove.
- Finish
- Bitter.
- Comment
- Too long in the wood.
Martine Nouet
65- Nose
- Sherry,sherry and sherry again. Antique shop,old furniture. Moss, damp earth. A hint of fungus. Sweetness lies in the back,as if chained by wood.Dates,molasses. Grated dark chocolate.
- Palate
- Oak juice,not much more… Astringent and bitter.
- Finish
- Bitter and spicy.
- Comment
- I have the feeling I keep repeating myself. It seems I have already swallowed a forest of Spanish oak.
