Description
The neat aroma suggested to us crushed nettles and crisp New Zealand sauvignon blanc with many lovely tropical inflections. We also found some sweeter hints of bubblegum and yellow flowers. This was charming and undeniably lovely we agreed. With water it revealed milk stout and cocoa, then dried mango, runny honey and fruit salad juices – typical of this lovely make so far. The palate was superbly fruity and thick, with exotic fruit juices, tropical bonbons, flower nectars, more honey and wee tangs of citrus sherbet and lanolin. Reduction brought further exotic fruit complexity: fruit teas, flower nectars, young sauternes, jasmine flower and limoncello, with a hint of toffee and vanilla tablet in the aftertaste. Lovely!
