Tasting Notes

Neil Ridley

Taster

Nose: Rosehip jelly, raspberry jam, strawberry, sherbet and coconut milk. Lightweight, but summery in its approach.

Palate: Sweet malt, some rich tea biscuit notes, a dash of drying oak and some lemon zest on the very end.

Finish: A little tart fruit (gooseberry) stays on the palate as it dries.

Comment: Nothing out of the ordinary and certainly not intent on pulling the palate in any particular direction.

Score: 7.8

Rob Allanson

Nose: Carrot cake mix, cinnamon, orange juice, walnut skins, goat's butter, fresh old school cloudy lemonade.

Palate: Light and gentle, custard tarts, brioche with chocolate spread, digestive biscuits, a little citrus as well.\r

Finish: A little drying then waves of juicy fruit.

Comment: Nice, gentle with some interesting complexities too.

Score: 7.9
