Pale gold straw, nose open floral and nutty, Ramonet minerals and wet rock aromas. Creamy and round, little lactic and slightly smokey on the nose. Palate dry crisp and light mineral acidity, creamy soft cheesy fruit, wet stones and acidity, citrus and white lemon pith, med to long length, good.
Deep straw colour, nose mature and full, creamy and lactic, ripe cheddar complex smoky and damp hay or cloth, palate round and full with that amazing Ramonet streak of pure minerality down the centre of palate, very long flavours of cinder toffee and creamy fudge keep resonating back.
Ronan is an excellent organiser and mentor and has one of the best wine knowledge in UK.
