Tasting Notes
Bright golden yellow, silver reflections. Fine blossom honey, ripe pineapple and peach fruit, a hint of lanolin, incredibly seductive bouquet, delicately underlain with ripe kumquats. Juicy, powerful, yet balanced, yellow tropical fruit, a hint of caramel, very good freshness, brilliant acidity, a hint of oak, mineral and long-lasting, with enormous certain ageing potential for further maturation.
More about the tastingMedium yellow, silver reflections. An attractive bouquet with yellow tropical fruit, underlaid with candied grapefruit, a subtle lanolin savouriness and a mineral touch. Elegant, powerful and tight-knit with subtle notes of passion fruit, very harmonious with oak savouriness and a nutty touch on the long finish. Definite ageing potential.
