Tasting notes
Bright green, gold on the eye. The nose evokes summers of honeysuckle, pear, fresh citrus and almond. This follows through to the palate with added complexity of subtle nots of almond brioche. The mouthfeel evolves with rounded length and fine texture.
Best drinking over the next 6 years.
