80
- Nose
- Potpourri. Leafy, cedary, oaky.
- Palate
- Creamy, fudgy, flavours. Berry fruits emerging, then fruity, plum-skin acidity.
- Finish
- Cooked plums. Fruit pies. Smoky.
- Comment
- Plenty of dimension. The acidity makes it especially appetising and drinkable, and potentially an accompaniment to food. Bring on the barbecue.
75
- Nose
- Exotic and plump, slightly yeasty with sultana and spices (Peshwari Naan??) then coconut cream, Madeira cake, crème brûlée and sugar candy.
- Palate
- Oakier and spicier than the nose suggests. The soft red fruit/honey hidden slightly. Dry.
- Finish
- A little woody.
- Comment
- An amazingly sexy nose, but disappoints slightly on the palate.
