Overall
Score
7.4
Nose
Herbal, grassy and fragrant. Walking through a summer flower meadow, stepping on a path of thyme and lemon verbena, brushing past some violets before a fragrant forest of oak and pine.
Palate
A light-as-gossamer body, carrying a chalky, dusty vanilla core on the palate. Rum 'n' raisin fudge and spicy, dried chilli flakes bring some interest in the mid-palate.
Finish
Dusty chalk and wood shavings.
Comment
The palate was sadly a bit one-dimensional for me following the delicate nuances of the nose.
