Tasting notes

Taster Dave Broom

Nose: Leafy with brazil nut, cocoa and even a vegetal note akin to spring onion (this is good). In time there's a hint of oak, toasted hazelnut and a building sweet character.
Palate: Rosehip syrup sweetness and a hint of little blueberry. This fruitiness continues into the mid palate where the wood begins to grip, a little too firmly.
Finish: Crisp and clean.
Comment: Well put together.

7.7

Taster Martine Nouet

Nose: Earthy. Musty. Wet leaves. Damp wood. Mushrooms. Hint of turpentine. Touch of oxtail consommé.
Palate: Smooth and sweet. Chocolate fudge. Liquorice. A hint of cardboard. Withwater, toffee and more sweetness.
Finish: Dry, oaky, slightly bitter. With a biscuity aftertaste.
Comment: Nose and palate differ a lot. Oak is blatantly present.
