Description
Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Josh Raynolds
Light, bright yellow. Sexy aromas of orange, poached pear and violet, with a hint of vanilla bean. Juicy and broad on entry, then tighter in the mid-palate, offering juicy orchard and pit fruit flavors and a refreshingly bitter note of quinine. Finishes on a smoky note, with very good clarity and precision.
