A mild character, soft and pleasant but lacking nerve. Fine for a sweet tooth.

Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Perfumy. Floral. Carnation. Dry cider. Crushed fresh hazelnuts. Quite a rich aromatic profile.

Palate: Sweet, with a good fruity profile. Wine gums. Nice creaminess.

Finish: Medium, pleasant sweetness.

Comment: A mild character, soft and pleasant but lacking nerve. Fine for a sweet tooth.

Score: 7.5

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Allspice, light cooked fruit, green plum, sour cherry, pomegranate, apple skin, a little hint of musk. Ripe tropical fruits. Rich and layered.

Palate: As sweet as the nose suggests, but this has an extra grip and acidic kick to add interest and structure. Better without water, but well balanced.

Finish: Firm mix of fruit and oak.

Comment: This has better balance than most of the rest on show. Dares to show individuality.

Score: 8.3
