Tasting Notes
The first impression is of strawberry sorbet. This soon gives way to a creamy, subtle nose of autumnal red raspberry leaf, iron oxide and Red Delicious apple. The palate then arrives like a wave of softness, like a velvety caress of the finest, most delicate mousse and a rounded but well-defined body. The wine has something supple, something generous, but also something completely sensual about it, and with a little more air, a gentle, perfumed floral hint dances and floats. What a unique and seductive expression of a warm and sunny vintage.

The palate then comes like a wave of mellowness, like a velvet caress of finest, gentlest mousse and a rounded yet well-defined body. There is something supple, something generous but also utterly sinuous about this and more air allows a gentle, perfumed floral hint to dance and hover. What a singular and seductive expression of a warm and sunny vintage. A.K.
