Tasting Notes
Pale yellow gold, silver reflections. Fine yellow tropical fruit, a hint of quince, delicate honeydew melon, ripe apricot, candied orange zest, nuances of brioche and caramel. Juicy, elegant, substantial and powerful, fine extract sweetness, subtle acidity, balanced and with great length, certainly further ageing potential. Will remain at this high level for a long time, shows fine herbal savouriness on the finish. (PM, Magnum, 6/24).
