Tasting Notes
Medium greenish yellow with silver reflections. Yellow apple fruit on the nose underlies a delicate mineral savouriness with nuances of mango and papaya, delicate orange zest and a hint of blossom honey. Powerful, pronounced fruit on the palate with pleasant acidity, a mineral body, a hint of lime. This has a salty finish, great length and ageing potential.
