Love it that they had some Rosebank – and that they don’t do crystal decanters and silver-plated plastic stag’s heads.

Colour: straw.

Nose: we’re finding these juicy fruits again, it all only got mellower and more civilised. But this is very Rosebank indeed, with pineapple sweets, liquorice allsorts, lime and green apples, and quite some acacia honey. All-vitamin fruit juice. With water: no changes, perhaps a little more cut grass, and leaves.

Mouth (neat): some perfect fruit juice indeed, fruit salad, sweets and bonbons, Juicy fruit, sherbets, and once again, a little light and flowery honey. Notes of zucchini flower fritters (do you know how good that is?) and wee bananas, like they have in Cuba. Best bananas in the world. With water: delicious. I’m not using that word often, but it is delicious.

Finish: medium, clean, fruity. More all-vitamin fruit juice, this will cure just anything. Send a bottle to D.J.T.!

Comments: one of the fruitiest makes there ever was. This one is still young, and just very lovely.

Nose : this one’s fruity and sweet from the get go : no need to give it time,no work needed as it’s an ‘in your face’ fruit salad,honey and other goodness sort of dram… On first whiff you can find overripe bananas, cherub honey ( you know what drips when you squeeze those cherubs),cantaloupe and red apples as well as tinned pineapple. If you really inhale hard, some old vinegar notes arise.
Palate : big sweet and spicy entry, with peppery notes,which subside to reveal all those sweet fruity notes from the palate, with an added chocolate-y note,and overripe blood oranges on top of the exotic fruit.
Finish : fruit, cherub honey. Rewarding.
Bottom line:
Give me a dram of this every day and I’m a happy camper. This is rich, fruity and lovely. great stuff all around.
