Nose
Soft, very grassy and linseedy. Palate
Remarkably syrupy. Very sweet and spicy. Lemon grass. Finish
Lemon sherbet fizzing on the tongue. Comment
Deserves points for daring to be so sweet.

Nose
Intense, lightly fragrant nose: some grassiness and juicy fruits but this is a prickly character that’s more austere than it initially seems. Palate
Gutsy and zesty with an oily crunch mid-palate. Light and straight down the middle of the palate. Finish
Zesty, peppery. Little short. Comment
Have with Guinness to soften the slightly hard edges.
