SMWS Tasting Notes
Colour: Golden marigold
Unmistakable sweetness on the nose – sticky dates, honeycomb, strawberry milk-shake and salted caramel – but other aromas added to the complexity and sophistication – we passed a housekeeping trolley in a hotel lobby (perfumed soaps, fresh laundry, cleaning stuff and confectionery) on our way to the spa. The palate was amazing – caramel, vanilla, rich toffee, Crunchie bars and waffles, but with sharp, fizzy pear sorbet and popping candy as one counterpoint and mouth-drawing toasted oak and leather as another. The reduced nose was indulgent and rewarding – like standing between an Arran Aromatics shop and an ice-cream parlour. The palate – elegant, tasty and complex.
Drinking tip: To enjoy in a hotel bath - or for Valentines
