Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

no, this is rather nice, more on farm cider, iodine tincture, oysters as ever, perhaps a hint of wasabi, plasticine, pine sap and a touch of turpentine. Fair enough, if it’s fermenting in Oregon pine, after 115 hours you’d expect to smell something. Just joking! With water: laundry detergent, new jumper, plaster, fresh plastic

restaurant Palate

fruitier on the palate than usual, mostly citrus. Throw in some limoncello, tinned gherkins and samphire. Lovely salinity. With water: plasticine again, but it pairs well with the seawater and lemon showing up here

timer Finish

long, with a more prominent peatiness emerging
