Tasting
How it drinks
Sight
Pale straw gold with green-gold tints; lighter colour than wine cask versions, delicate appearance
Nose
Elegant and light — white grape, green apple, pear, vanilla cream, honey, gentle floral notes. Toasted brioche and a hint of white pepper. Much more delicate than the sherry versions
Palate
Medium-bodied but with cask strength intensity. White grape, apple crumble, vanilla custard, honey, pear, and winey minerality. Light baking spice and toasted oak. Surprisingly elegant at this ABV
Finish
Medium-long finish. Apple and pear fade through vanilla cream, light oak, and subtle grape must character. Clean and refined
