Tasting Notes
The nose began with the bright effervescence of a bubbly French wine alongside tangerine skins, melting lemon ice poles and a fragrant cotton freshness. In a sun-drenched orchard, we then sipped chamomile tea served with canned peaches and pear juice. The unreduced palate arrived hot and fizzy, providing a sharp bite of bitter lemon and peppery treacle tart before settling into a silky sauvignon blanc and custard creams. Adding water revolutionised the experience, transporting the Panel to a Parisian pâtisserie, where lemon cream choux buns and strawberry tarts sat atop a glass counter of salted caramel and yellow iced cakes. The heat vanished, replaced by a fizzy fondant mouthfeel, and vanilla and honey yoghurt. Finally, a lingering touch of dry oak and leather levelled the sweetness, leaving a smooth, satisfying finish.
