Elegantly built-up aromas and flavors, centered around peaches, gooseberries and orange blossom notes, framed by hints of oak, but first and foremost this is a modern and positively naked expression where tart fruit and minerality are driving forces. Mid-term cellaring is recommended.

Explosive aromas of gun flint, spice, vanilla and tart lemons, adding complexity with air, bringing richer elements of tropical fruits and freshly cut herbs. Luscious on the palate with beautiful texture, fresh acidity and and a lingering finish dominated by lime and freshly squeezed lemon juice flavors. A tiny tannic grip add lift and interest on the back palate. Will age nicely for another 10 years. 96 p.
