Description
The descriptors just kept coming – fresh summer flowers in a sun-filled room, wine gums, jelly babies, popcorn, peach slices in syrup and Swedish milk chocolate with a caramel filling. On the palate we had a sweet Italian passito-style wine with those typical flavours of honey, Seville oranges, caramel and almonds, served with a slice of panettone. After dilution, we found the scent of just-out-of-the-oven milk chocolate chip cookies as well as freshly made popcorn with nuts and spices added to the crunchy batch. The taste was now sweet and smooth, evoking peach melba French toast with custard cream and raspberry puree.
