Tasting Notes
Limited to 1 bottle per member
We came in from the cold, waxed jackets tossed on the mahogany table, woollen slippers on, fire lit – and enjoyed a feast of lemon puffs, sugared almonds and maple and pecan Danish. The palate's sweetness (apple crumble, honey-drizzled meringues and panna cotta), preceded a dry, spicy finish (cinnamon stick, ginger snaps, tannic oak). The reduced nose entertained us further with candied peel, apricots, dates and marshmallows; hints of birch sap and well-fired rolls. The palate was once again fruity and sweet, with a warm and lively finish – lime marmalade on toast, orange pekoe tea, clove oil and sugar-coated fennel seeds.
