Tasting Notes

We imagined an antique chest of drawers with some dusty floral potpourri on top. Opening a drawer we found, besides a few mothballs, a long-lost yet dearly loved lambswool scarf which reminded us of a bygone era. The taste, when neat, gave us roasted chestnuts, spicy oven-roasted plums, blackcurrant cordial and custard cream biscuits. Following the addition of water there was still a dusty, warm wool feeling on the nose, but more like a beanie hat being taken off in the comfort of your home after a long walk out in the freezing cold. The palate was fresh, fruity, herbal and floral, with the flavours typically found in a dry white wine such as a sauvignon blanc.
