Powerful nose, anise, cantaloupe, citrus, grapefruit, red and pink. mango, papaya, just ripe, salty nose, lovely airiness and almost chablis like minerality. Juicy and clean, so sappy and dense but light and mineral. Gorgeous, papaya and mango on the palate. So pure and deep. Nose showing spice. Lovely purity. Length is brilliant. — 9 days ago
