Nose Gentle and welcoming, with creamy vanilla, Conference pear and fresh grass followed by crème brûlée, waxy orange rind and a little rich marzipan.
Palate There’s more vanilla - this time like freshly whipped ice cream - as well as white chocolate, French pastries and hazelnut butter before things move towards blackcurrants, firm oak and gingery spice.
Finish There are some unctuous apricot-like fruits before the finish concludes on a slightly bitter and peppery note.
Overall A rather lovely, on-the-money bottling from Cambus.
