Tasting Notes

Phoebe Calver

Taster

Nose: A lot of sweetness, with poached pear slices soaked in cinnamon, complete with a dollop of mascarpone and wafer-thin biscuits.

Palate: More of the orchard fruit notes appearing, with malted milk biscuits, lemon and honey tea, and a thin pie crust with cinnamon spice reappearing.

Finish: Lingering and rich, with notes of pear and almond tart.

Comment: Really lovely balance between juicy fruit notes and complex spices.

Score: 8.1

Taster

Nose: Fanta and vanilla ice cream float. Subtle lime zest. Sourdough donuts with apricot jam filling. Honey nut cornflakes with milk. Dried apricots.

Palate: Medium-full. A medley of candied orange, white chocolate buttons, lemon and lime boiled sweets and more honey nut cornflakes. Subtle peanut brittle, too.

Finish: Medium, on the orange and peanut notes.

Comment: Immensely summery and quaffable.

Score: 8.1
