    Sous bois and strawberry on the nose with a faintly woody/musty nose. Positive attack but the fruit falls away in the middle quite quickly. A little austere on the finish. Some debate as to whether this is slightly corky. If representative, **1/2 mainly for the interest in the nose.

    Ripe and semi exotic on the nose. Apple, custard apple and something fresher and zingier too. Lots of texture and grip on the palate. Far larger framed than the nose suggests. Oodles of extract. Chewy. This is really quite impressive. ***1/2
