Tasting Notes

Martine Nouet

Taster

Nose: Light and fruity. Autumn fruit. Overipe pears, medlars. A touch of pear cider (poiré). Apple blossom. Honey. A hint of white chocolate. Opens up slowly but pleasantly.

Palate: Smooth and sweet at start. Then dries up and leaves a bitter flavour like the\rskin of a cider apple.

Finish: Dry, short, bitter.

Comment: The nose promised more sweetness than the palate delivered. A little\rdisappointing. Needs time to open.

Score: 7.5

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Soft and mellow. Plenty of poached fruit, baked apple pie with a touch of\rmelted sugar.

Palate: Very cidery. Sweet and sharp that seems to work only on a couple\rof levels.

Finish: Short and sweet.

Comment: Not a bad dram just seems to lose its way a little.

Score: 7.7
