Overall
Score
7.0
Nose
It's green! It might be the colour, but there's a green olive brine/feta cheese note alongside creosote covered twine. Minty oily with some smoke.
Palate
Improves on the palate, oily and rich with fair grip. There's light coal smoke and the cheesy note doesn't intrude. Good length and balance.
Finish
Juniper and little smoke.
Comment
A quirky little number. Well worth a look.
