Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Very rich,bags of citrus peel,more steamed fruit pudding than Christmas cake. There is a creamy smoothness to it as well.

Palate: Soft and easy going. Plenty of red and dark berries with a zip of orange and\rlemon peel too.

Finish: Fruit compote and cream.

Comment: A great addition to the Glenrothes vintages. Stands up well among its fellow bottlings.

Score: 8.5
