Tasting Notes

Nose

Light, open. Outdoor fragrances: wet earth; a touch of moss and fern. Thyme, rosemary.

Palate

Velvety. Round and soft. Incredibly sweet given the strength. Greengage. Cooked peaches. Cherry stone. A subtle spicy rise.

Finish

Dry, spicy. Fresh almonds.

Comment

An interesting character. Much sweeter on the palate than expected from the nose. Water brings out an unpleasant cardboardy touch.
