Taster

Nose: Robust. Is that a hint of Irn Bru? There's oranges stewing in a pan and an aroma reminiscent of badly maderized wine (not Madeira) slightly off-putting.

Palate: Dominated by wood, then maderized character reappears.

Finish: Flat.

Comment: A very peculiar beast.

Score: 6.5

Taster

Nose: Candyfloss (cotton candy). Some oxidation.

Palate: Sweet. Spicy. Muscovado sugar. Digestive biscuits.

Finish: Cedary dryness.

Comment: Lots of aromas and flavours, but lacks structure. Curiously flat.

Score: 7.5
