Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Nose
Creamy, slightly restrained. Coffee toffee. Tiramisu. Polished floor. Old library. Orange peel. All well integrated and mingled. Elegant. Attractive.
Palate
Sweet and soft, a bit too soft. Watery at mid-palate. Marmelade. Nutmeg. Hint of cinnamon.
Finish
Long, gentle, a bit tired. Almondy.
Comment
A lot of elegance and distinction but as if it has lost health. Surprisingly enough, waters boosts it.

Dave Broom

Nose
Rich in weight yet slightly dry. Spearmint, treacle, walnut. Mature.
Palate
Slightly oily. Sponge pudding, cocoa. Oak is quite firm but there’s enough sweetness to balance.
Finish
Leaf mulch.
Comment
Seems older. A little fragile.
