Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

this one’s more mineral, more on chalk and crushed limestone, but also fresh bread, raisin rolls, brioche with sultanas… It feels almost like a more old-school HP than the recent OBs we’ve just tried. With water: chalk and clay marls after a summer thunderstorm (what?) then a fresh baguette at six in the morning

restaurant Palate

much tauter and more nervous than the OB C/S #4, lemony, on pink grapefruit, sharp riesling, lime, and ginger tonic… We’re huge fans of all that, let’s not pretend otherwise. With water: perfect—fresh yet full-bodied, with a very discreet and wonderfully elegant sherry, giving full expression to a distillate firmly driven by citrus. We’ve said it before, citrus—and honey—will save the world

timer Finish

long, flawless, precise, not a single off-note, and heading straight towards that most conclusive of flavours: beeswax
