Intense golden yellow colour with silver hues, refined brightening on the rim. Intense yellow tropical fruit, refined hints of honey, beautiful apricot and caramel, ripe stone fruit nuances and a subtle hint of coconut. Juicy, ripe pineapple, refined savoury notes of botrytis, a pleasant freshness, great complexity, very good balance, great length, an outstanding sweet wine, close to perfection. Let it age a little longer, it has not yet reached its full maturity.
