Nose

First, smoky bacon crisps. Iberico ham, ancho chilli, and rye crackers. Then clove-studded orange, prunes, and apple and blackcurrant cordial. A little wet grain and burnt rubber.

Palate

Orange polenta cake with lashings of caramel. Woody vanilla. Clove and black pepper spice. Oyster mushroom and a pinch of dried, smoky chilli. Raspberry compote and dried mango.

Finish

Medium-long, on soy sauce, grassy spice, orange zest, and a hint of dark chocolate.

Comment

A lovely interplay of sweet and savoury that evolves as it sits.
