Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

starts with many beers, from lagers to ales, before it becomes rather more mineral. Wet limestone, freshly squeezed orange juice, cider apples, some green tea, only a touch of vanilla, greengages, gooseberries… It’s really a bright orchardy Arran, rather au naturel as far as I can tell. Also notes of leaves and ‘young’ bark

restaurant Palate

is it like what happens with many white wines, the minerality (and/or salinity) comes out after quite a few years of maturing. Indeed, beyond the rather creamy vanilla and tinned peaches, and beyond the few sultanas from the soft sherry, I’m finding a chalkiness that’s really to my liking. No notes of buds/stems/rubber this time, and little leafy sherry. Touches of lemon and grapefruit as well, all for the better

timer Finish

medium, clean and fresh, rather on lemon curd, tarte au citron, sweet vanilla, and overripe apples… Drops of Fanta
