Tasting Notes
Medium yellow-green. Underlaid with fresh herbal savouriness and fine petrol, yellow tropical fruit, red berry fruit, but also pineapple, candied orange zest, multi-faceted bouquet. Juicy, fine white peach fruit, racy, vibrant acidity structure, lemony touch on the finish, pleasant fruit expression and discreet orange tones on the finish, salty touch. Unbowed youth. Quite simply a brilliant wine of 30 years' maturity.
