Tasting Notes

Nose

Peach and strawberry yoghurts, Refresher sweets, carrots and pears. With time and water a slightly silagey element appears, but recovers to show admirable balance of fruit, earth and wood.

Palate

Buttery, fruity and a slurpy suck of toffee.

Finish

A light burnt-woodiness indicating some age and a slight minerally, coal-tar edge.

Comment

Very enjoyable and marked up for balance and poised integration.
