9.244 Sheer pleasure

Description

Nosing this, we entered a country house (polished expensive furniture) fresh from an autumn walk in the woods and were served extravagant fruit salad, Tunnock’s caramel wafers and honeyed golden dessert wine – sheer spoiled pleasure. The palate combined honey and malted biscuits with strawberry sherbet and Love Hearts; then finished with lingering hints of eucalyptus and Fisherman’s Friends. On the reduced nose, pink custard now joined the exotic fruits and we discovered vanilla, coconut, fragrant wood, muesli and cinnamon sticks. The reduced palate delivered custard over jam roly poly, papaya and toasted coconut, finishing with sophisticated cinnamon and gentle ginger.
