Deep gold in colour with medium+ intense nose.
Taste is better than the nose
Positives: The taste is rich and creamy featuring medium+ toasted oak, buttered popcorn, apple crumble pie, pear & peach. Full body with good acidity and a fairly long length.
Negatives: Didn’t like the powerful wood resin/smoky peat nose.
Drink now on its own or pair it with Camembert.
