Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

prunes, calvados, Armagnac, poire williams - really a mini convention on French fruit distillates. Also slightly grassy, hints of coconut, lime, hessian, crushed nettles and toasted cereals. Savoury flapjack, sage, mint tea and things like muesli, chopped dates and oatcakes. Also quite a few fresh breads and mixed seeds. Gets increasingly autolytic with time. With water: a little spicier but also softer at the same time. Chalky mint, lemongrass, white pepper and a nice olive oil note

restaurant Palate

surprisingly sweet initially, lots of honey, mead, heather ale, cornflour and icing sugar. Gets more biscuity, gingery, nutmeg, olive oil, hessian and soot. A touch of wax and some white pepper. With water: soft garden fruits such as apples and pears, lemon thyme, dry cider, lemon and brown bread

timer Finish

medium in length and rather citrusy, delicately herbal, light peppery notes again and more bready, autolytic aspects
