Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Colour: Rose gold.
Nose: An intriguing combination of strawberry milkshake and marzipan, with a hint of Vimto. Warm buttered popcorn also makes an appearance.
Palate: Creamy and soft; fruity and super tangy - Maoams and Opal Fruits (Google it)… A fruit basket of cranberries, blood orange, peaches and apricots, with a touch of stewed raisins. Vibrant and lively; very spicy towards the end.
