Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
I regret to inform you that the nose is magnificent, one even wonders whether this might have been an old white port cask from Niepoort or other good ones (S., they say tawny, t.a.w.n.y.) . Wild mirabelles and bergamots, then clover honey. With water: out come mineral elements, flint, crushed slate, and then bread dough
restaurant Palate
classic young HP, with all the usual attributes, citrusy and mineral tension, various honeys, peach skins, apple and pear peel, and then a burst of grey pepper suddenly taking charge… With water: everything falls into place, fine peat, citrus, precise honeys, soft spices, raisins… In fact, the gentler side of the port is now beginning to make itself known
