Deep golden colour, nose nutty and old butter – not pleasant at first but with air it opened and evolved into complex marzipan and confit stone fruit aromas, amazing, very deep, lovely rich texture, great mouthfeel and balance. Very long.
Nose wet do hair and horsebox, quite bretty on opening needs lots of air, not going to be a great wine, soft cherry and cedar wood nose, soft tannins, earthy ironstone hints, med long
Ronan Sayburn was one of the first true Sommeliers who welcomed me into Sommellerie over 10 years ago, opening his door to share his knowledge and assist in developing my sommelier skills whilst working in Michelin starred establishments. He has been a direct influence in my professional development and wine studies including national and international sommelier competitions. His willingness to assist and support anyone with a true desire to further themselves in the hospitality industry is effortless, and one which echoes across the UK and abroad through world-wide recognition and respect amongst his peers and leading industry figures.
