Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Charming. Perfumy. Almond milk. Raisins soaked in sauternes and coated in milk chocolate. So mouthwatering. Honeyed peaches. With a citrus note hovering.

Palate: Silky,caressing. The same luscious combination of fruit with additional spices.

Finish: Drying on spices. Ginger with a delicious nutty comeback.

Comment: An absolute cracker. Delicate, elegant. More than a golden promise. A gem delivery !
