Taster
Nose: Complex yet restrained with depth and a subtle charm. Poached pear, peach, creamy toffee/sweet vanilla and hint of light rye notes, lemon nut and hickory.
Palate: Sits on the tongue nicely with an almost dense chewiness. Starts softly then a gentle, subtle lift of lemon icing, sultana cake, rye and soft sweet honey.
Finish: Soft and long.
Comment: Mellow elegance. Joni Mitchell.
Score: 8.5
