Dark, rich shining red gold. Intense aroma of toasted almond bread, candied lemon, dried apricot with an air of cold smoke and oxidative notes. First a creamy, fine attack, then a gripping, racy acidity that runs along the palate. Refreshing saltiness lends a hearty freshness despite its maturity. Mouth-watering on the long finish. Exceptional!
