Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
fresh like a Bruichladdich! Honest, had I tried this baby blind, I’d have said ‘Bruichladdich!’. So we have this very peculiar combination of melons, peaches and sea air, then rather more almond oil and maybe a little fresh putty, apple peel and walnuts and then more peaches again. Very nice freshness
restaurant Palate
fruitier and less ‘coastal’ than Bruichladdich, and much more to my liking than other middle-aged indie Bunnies that I could try through the years. In truth, the fresh fruitiness is quite spectacular, with pomegranates, cranberries, litchis, ripe apples… All that is very sweet, almost sugary in a good way. Sweets. Excellent mouth feel
timer Finish
medium, still very fruity while we’d have expected more oak. Right, there is a little cinnamon in the aftertaste… And liquorice allsorts
