Tasting Notes

Colour

apricot

air Nose

not too many winey notes and rather more flints and coal smoke at first nosing, then hints of sulphur and blackcurrant buds. The relatively fresh oak brings a faint mouldiness to the whole. Not unpleasant but as expected, the ‘natural’ Arrans are much more to my liking. With water: farmyard and cow stable, raw grains. LIttle winey notes left

restaurant Palate

the wine is more obvious on the palate, the whole being slightly sourish. Cider, touches of vinegar. With water: once again, water made the wine a tad less exuberant. Marzipan and apple pie, hints of sour cream

timer Finish

medium long, much more on candy sugar
