Medium yellow, v youthful looking for 11 yrs old!! - big grapefruit pith nose, lime - still seems almost entirely primary - same on palate - ageless - seems like a '13 - lime, grapefruit - dry, balanced - v good length, nice - I will leave my other bottle for perhaps another decade, lots of potential here

Green/straw colour. Initially lemon and aniseed on the nose but the latter dissipated with time to leave a more citric concentration and a little grassy minerality. The palate is more lush and grapey than expected and shows more lemon and lime flavour within a medium body. A very enjoyable bottle, good QPR.

Honeysuckle and citrus nose. On the palate the fresh lemon flavours are most apparent. Very elegant, low alcohol at 11% yet still rich.

Slightly muted, bready nose. Some aniseed? Expressive appley palate, good creamy medium/full body.
