Tasting Notes
Honey yellow in colour. A savoury nose dominated by dried fruit, with candied orange and lemon peel, papaya and candied lime. Very dense on the palate with a firm structure. This is an elixir, where sweetness and lively acidity coexist in beautiful interplay. Boiled mirabelle plums and tangerine marmalade waft through the long finish. Has great ageing potential.
