Light gold colour. Nice sweet currant, a bit of honey, just hints of marzipan that work really well. Taste is nice currant, soft woody honey, ending a little thin and a bit boozy. A little janky, but okay.

2014 vintage, bottle at Campbell's Gold, pours a clear white with no head. Nose is medium sweet, with lots of red and white currants, and medium sweet honey. Flavour is quite dry, with very dry currants and a rather vinous alcohol burn. Well-constructed though a bit harsh. Very good.

Bottle - Lots of light sweet honey. Pale gold. Grassy, honey and more grassy notes than currant.
