Tasting Notes
Medium green-yellow in colour. Delicately savoury, attractive ripe apple fruit, background with fine tobacco savouriness, fine orange zest, substantial, powerful texture, yellow mango fruit, silky interwoven body, finely integrated acid structure, incredibly rich in extract, already shows immense length, great future and certain ageing potential. A powerful and already well-balanced food companion that will improve with every year.
