Overall
Score
7.0
Nose
Citric and grainy, wheat flakes and herbal rye-like notes. Young and intense with saline astringency. Sultana and white grape. A touch of toffee coated banana. Water brings out fragrant honey and soft barley.
Palate
Tart and astringent, herbal rye-like notes and menthol. Oak and fleshy fruit sit beneath, the alcohol masks any further development. Water emphasises light toffee and honey but there is less herbal character.
Finish
Intense, dry, mouth-watering, herbal; menthol along with hints of heather and coffee.
Comment
Water makes it easier to drink.
