Tasting Notes
Medium yellow-green, silver glints. Subtle smoky-herbal savoury scents, gentle hints of yellow tropical fruit, and soft notions of tangerine zest. Juicy, elegant, revealing a velvety-silky texture, well-integrated moderate acidity, and immense harmony, superseded by a hint of apricot on the finish. A very multifaceted food companion with ageing potential.
