Tasting Notes

Colour

pale apricot

air Nose

we aren’t too far from the Waves except that this one is a little rounder and maybe a little less fresh and clean. Same notes of horse saddle (not really sweat!) plus something delicately earthy. Hints of blackcurrant buds – kind of Médocan so to speak. I tend to like the Waves a little better on the nose

restaurant Palate

same as the Wave, only with more fruits. Notes of raspberry spirit and maybe even pisco (just had a few at a friend’s who’s just back from Peru). It’s rather less fresh and playful than the Waves

timer Finish

medium long, with a vinosity in the aftertaste (grapefruits and raspberries). And some liquorice again
