Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

smoky, less coastal than the G&M, for example, and maybe even narrower, but this very precise and concise style works well. Grass, ashes, iodine and just a little hay

restaurant Palate

very youthful, simple, chiselled, precise and focussed. That means lemon, green apples, marzipan, a little chilli and a lot of smoke and ashes. That's all, folks, but it works

timer Finish

long and sharp. Ultra-clean, except that there's something very 'green' in the aftertaste. Agaves? Mezcal? I'm not joking
