Nose

Very unusual on the first nosing - artichoke hearts, broad beans, nettles and fresh gooseberries. Very vegetative indeed.

Palate

The gooseberries continue to the palate, with a salty note, some hidden creaminess and tart lemon juice.

Finish

The finish develops more of a creaminess alongside some woody spice -a touch of liquorice root and oak.

Comment

Not unpleasant, but not without fault either. An enigma this one.
