Taster

Nose: More citrus and a hint of wood oil. The nuts have shifted to bran,but water brings out a thicker aroma\rreminiscent of banana split with chopped hazelnuts.Almond milk

Palate: A soft start with good feel and better structure. Some sweet liquorice. Though dulled a little with water the\rsweet:dry interplay continues seen on the nose continues in the mouth. A crisp note in the centre flows well.

Finish: Ripe black fruits.

Comment: Good balance.

Score: 8
