Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

much rounder than the last one, fruitier, more pastry-like, easier overall, yet still excellent. There’s a lovely, slightly earthy touch and a hint of Chardonnay—though I doubt they’ve actually used Chardonnay casks. With water: notes of bread and oatcakes, snapped branches, and fresh bark

restaurant Palate

of course, it’s very good. Fresh oak makes itself quite known, then comes apple, lemon, grey and green peppers, and twigs. With water: deliciously lively, lemony, with green apple and that familiar honeyed touch emerging. A hint of rather sweet carrot as well

timer Finish

long, even softer despite the presence of lemon and spices
