Chris Goodrum (Gauntleys)

Bourbon
Tasted: Apr 2011
A huge an enveloping tropical fruit nose. There is no shortage of floral-honey-nectar, barley, toffee’d banana, grape, lime and a touch of light spice. The aromas are all wrapped in this delicious brown sugar sprinkled maturity along with some supportive oak. With time some perfumed acacia top notes appear.

The palate is broad and generous, and exceedingly complex – opening with hints of green fruit, grape and kiwi before moving into fleshy tropical citrus, barley and banana territory. A lovely bracing coastal middle (which surprisingly was absent from the nose!) leads into a wood infused finish – cocoa, burnt butter, brown sugar. And just when you though it was all over the tropical fruit returns cloaked in a shroud of maturity and really lingers!
