Tasting Notes

Fragrant aromas merged Turkish delight and violets with vanilla sponge cake as sweet biscuity notes turned to coconut and apricot Danish pastries. The palate also contained a light perfume that carried a clove-like spiciness before softening to raspberry jam with cream tea. A dash of water caused tropical fruits to dominate while brambles, oranges and lemon meringue pie emerged. A touch of charred cask mixed with lovely candle wax textures as we moved onto a palate with great balance. Lemon and coconut returned but now with bananas, almond cakes and custard complementing melon and a touch of mint on the finish.
