Written Notes

Colour is yellow and medium. On the nose it is youthful, complex and refined. The taste is fresh, focused, refined, and dry, and average in acidity, medium-bodied, with balanced, well-structured, concentrated structure and youthful. On the palate it is layered and has citrus, mineral, smoky, white fruits and buttery flavours. The finish is long and vibrant. This wine is fine. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 1-5 years and decant at least 45min before tasting.
