Professional reviews

BOW (8)

Richard Kelley MW: Polished appearance. Mid-full orange-gold, with hints of green to the rim. The nose appears a little simple at this stage. Faintly ‘old fashioned’ and a bit backwards and brooding.

Just a hint of bruised apple or toffee apple. Mid-full palate. Good weight, but again seems a little simple at this stage. Hints of Indian spice; turmeric, perhaps…?

There is a good, solid finish and even shows a little alcoholic heat. Currently closed.
Hopefully, this has more to offer. For the moment, it's best left in the cellar.
