46.135 A magical forest walk

Description

The nose is a walk through a magical forest – starting with pine trees, herbs and flowers and ending up with candied citrus, dried mango and coconut. The palate could be licking an envelope after tasting lemon marmalade, but the finish swells into a hefty spice kick of cayenne pepper, coriander seeds and Liquorice Allsorts. The reduced nose develops a bit like before – mint, wintergreen, menthol and toasted pine nuts, but now also finds vanilla ice-cream and charred oak. The palate manages to balance the sweetness of lime fruit pastilles, birch syrup and toffee bonbons with the heat of aniseed and ginger.
