Taster

Nose: Intense with a slightbutyric touch. Overripe fruit. Medlars. A fungal and earthy note. Develops on sweeter notes. White chocolate with candied orange.

Palate: Very sweet at start then releasing a firework of spices. Oak shows up but\rnot blatantly.

Finish: Quickly fading. Warm and pleasant.

Comment: The nose is more expressive than the palate which does not have the same elegancy and nuance. But still very drinkable.

Score: 7.5

Taster

Nose: Round and well-covered with some mellow maturity. Fruit cake mix,clean spiciness, integrated wood. Lightly resinous,incense slightly yeasty.

Palate: Generous,with a bitter/sweet interplay. Gentle in the centre then a full-on spice attack mixed with mulberry depth. Raspberry vinegar, lemon zest. Water makes it too bitter.

Finish: Head-shakingly zesty.

Comment: It has balance but needs to be approached with cautious respect.

Score: 7.6
