Tasting notes

Taster Phoebe Calver

Nose: Wensleydale with apricot, hazelnut, sage and resinous notes. Bay leaf and tarte au citron.
Palate: Really herbal, with sage and the smell of your skin after swimming. Then fennel, warming clove and lemon curd.
Finish: The herbal notes continue, with nutty hazelnut for a relatively short finish.
Comment: There’s a lot that’s good, but perhaps it could do with a little more time to develop on its character.

7.4

Taster Christopher Coates

Nose: White bread and vanilla, grist and a touch of ripe pear. Digestive biscuit and marshmallow. Milkybar.
Palate: Very light bodied. Blueberry and vanilla custard. Pure dairy ice cream and wafer. White chocolate and a suggestion of almond flour. Dusting of icing sugar.
Finish: Short and vanilla forward, with just a little red apple peeking in.
Comment: Without faults, but so delicate it could be blown away by a stiff breeze.
