Written Notes

Colour is yellow and medium. On the nose it is open, intense, complex, refined and ripe. The taste is round, ripe, fruity, elegant, and dry, medium-bodied, with well-integrated structure and developing. On the palate it is layered and has creamy, buttery, citrus, tropical fruits, apricot and smoky flavours. The finish is long, smooth, gentle and round. This wine is well-rounded. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 1-5 years and decant at least 5min before tasting.
