Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Nose: The nose displays an enticing fruity basket of plums and caramelised pears delicately entangled in smoke. Vanilla lusciously swirls up with a briny whiff.
Palate: The palate is oily, almost velvety and brings out flavours of banoffee pie and intense fruit with a lingering finish on ginger, liquorice with vetiver.
Elegant and complex, a true Celt character from Brittany.”
