Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale white wine
air Nose
it’s all pears, white peaches and green apples at first nosing, with a bizarre milkiness and notes of burning cardboard. I think it’s simply too young and that it didn’t have time to mature properly (I know, in the old days, they would have simply re-levelled it with caramel). More and more on pear spirit. Not bad in fact, just immature I think
restaurant Palate
ouch, this is quite hard. There’s lots of salt and lots of fresh fruit juice (pears again, apples) plus kind of a dryness from the wood but that’s pretty all, I’m afraid. Plus, it’s quite sugarish, especially at the finish. Interesting young Pulteney with all its attributes but it’s simply too young I think. 72 points .
