Bag-in-a-box at EBF Nov 23. Aroma has peel and tartness. Opaque chestnut. Frothy bubbly translucent off-white head. Watery. S9me sweetness. Peel bitterness. Then develops a dry streak. Light. Thin. Average carbonation. Long dry finish. Snooze. Not much to see here.

500ml bottle shared with Soph. Clear gold appearance. Thin bodied, watery, extremely oaky tannins, whisky barrel aftertaste.. very far from a demi-sec, not keeved. Bit weird this one, lacking a good fruitiness unfortunately.

6/12/2002. Bottle shared by Colin, cheers. Pours clear amber bronze with minimal head. Aroma of stewed apple, straw, horse blanket, funky, mucky edge. Moderate sweetness, light tartness. Moderate body, slightly oily, average carbonation. Dry tannic finish. Pretty decent.

Bottle sample courtesy of Theydon_Bois, cheers Colin! Coppery amber gold colour, afew bubbles on top and aroma of apple, funk, straw, caramel hint. Taste is tangy, apple, some skin and core, fleshy, with light funk, wood, and earthy drying tannins. Medium bodied, low carbonation, dry tannic finish. Nicely drinkanle.
