Tasting Notes

Annabel Meikle

Taster

Nose: Bags of citrus with pomelo and ripe orange, grilled sugared grapefruit. Manuka honey and more orange peel comes through.

Palate: A mentholic cool tempered by a spicy toffee. It warms with salted caramel, fennel salami and carpaccio on waxed paper.

Finish: Fresh and fruity with an umami finish.

Comment: Unusual and quite mysterious – a light touch to it.

Score: 8.1
