Tasting Notes
This has a deep yellow gold colour, with a subtle watery rim, and silver reflections. There is a delicate herbal savouriness, with a hint of grapefruit zest, and some honey. It is juicy, with yellow peach fruit, some pineapple, vivid alcohol, medium length, a hint of rusticity, and a salty touch on the finish. It would be better to wait another two or three years. .
