Tasting notes
Taster   Martine Nouet
Nose: Malty with a citrussy tone. A real fruit salad: tangerines, oranges, lemons. Starburst sweets (sour lemon and orange).
Palate: Clean and crisp. Easy flowing. Releases all the appetising fruity notes of the nose.
Finish: Lusciously lingering. With this pleasant clean character. Spicy. Ginger. Nutty.
Comment: A structured and well integrated dram. With a real natural complexity. To be enjoyed with good pals. Definitely uplifting.
8.3
Taster   Dave Broom
Nose: Moist and vinous. Some orange, slightly waxy, tinned pineapple then moves to fruit cake mix with dry cereal behind. Water adds another layer. Slightly damp wood though.
Palate: Fresh though there’s an underpinning of dried fruit (fig). A little flat in the middle.
Finish: Picks up a very late burst of energy.
Comment: It’s trying so hard to be the life and soul of the party, but hasn’t the personality to do so.
