Tasting Notes
Roasted nuts, coconut and smoky spice testify to the ageing in new oak. The apricot and abate pear fruit is sober, somewhat roasted and candied. Sweet, toasty spice on the palate too, with somewhat sparse fruit and bitter tannins. We recommend an oily fish and sauce with lots of good butter.
