Taster

Nose: Red grape, fruit kernel, quite lean. Citrus zest, touch of lavender and a little metallic. Water makes it akin to cold stewed tea. Firm. Green.

Palate: You almost don't notice it in the mouth to begin with. Dumbed down with water. Bland.

Finish: Firm and a touch edgy.

Comment: Trying to please too many people therefore has no individuality, other than aggression.

Score: 7

Taster

Nose: Fruity. A touch of rose scent. Sweet vanilla rises up with a hint of marzipan. Apple skin.

Palate: Sweet but crisp. Peach cooked in vanilla. Dusty spices.

Finish: Dry, spicy, quite lingering.

Comment: Probably rich in rye. Quite a nice sweet and sour profile. With a good oaky frame. An unusual taste which reminds French gin spirit.

Score: 7.8
