Overall
Score
8.2
Nose
Complex and fresh scented. Lightly maritime. Concentrated light honey flavours and maple syrup when reduced.
Palate
Maritime. Pretty friable; the addition of water doesn't help.
Finish
Very short and drying.
Comment
Confusing. Lightness of nose is contradicted by strident palate. It promises a lot but doesn't deliver.
