Notes

The nose peeped shyly from behind a gorse bush, before displaying its fruity character (melon, green grape, lime); eventually it relaxed into honey, caramel and gingerbread. The palate began with sherbet straws, soor plooms, brambles and lemonade; settled to vanilla, dark honey and toasted almonds, then left an afterglow of cinnamon, clove and bitter chocolate. The reduced nose combined melon balls in syrup, cherry panna cotta, Black Forest gateau and hints of ripe barley fields, cigar boxes and polished teak. The palate now delighted us with candied orange slices, sherbet lemons, raspberry jam pips and rum-soaked sultanas – sunshine in a glass.
