500ml bottle 5.6% from Hop, Burns & Black. 2014 Vintage, Lot 0914. Sparkling yellowy golden colour with a white foam head that quickly dissipates away and aroma of mellow fruity apple with caramel & vanilla. Taste is tangy, musty fruity apple, alittle apple skin, bittersweet, plus some vanilla notes and light tannins. Medium bodied, spritzy carbonation, dry tart fruity finish. Quite drinkable.

Not bad. Semi-dry with light apple and light floral elements, nice fizz on the palate. It’s a good drinker.

Bottle pour at Shelton Brothers. Lovely floral nose with elderflower and alongside wildflowers in a field. Sweet apples on the palate with some light acidity. Clean and enjoyable.
