Tasting Notes

Dave Broom

Taster

Nose: Overripe russet apple,polished oak, pear juice,preserved lemon,boiled sweet (orange Spangles).Lightly spiced. Good.

Palate: Soapiness,sadly,overwhelms what is a gentle softly fruity charmer.

Finish: Clying and soapy.

Comment: A real shame.

Score: 6.4

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Unusual.Like the 'fraise tagada'

Palate: Sweet and bitter. Again that artificial flavouring taste.More orange drop this time.

Finish: A bit hard. Oaky. A cardboardy touch. Then caramelised nuts and spices.

Comment: Ends better than it starts. Water neutralises the fraise tagada but I still can'tget acquainted !

Score: 7
