Deep salmon color. Nose of strawberry, grapefruit, kiwi and apricot. Those flavors follow through to the palate quite nicely.

Big orange-white cherry-peach nose, with patchwork smoke, borderline acrid, like a lighter that catches fire. Heavier mouthfeel, adds the feeling of syrup to the fruit bowl, but it recedes quickly enough, becoming drier, as the fruits transmogrify back to a leaner greener version of themselves. Slate-y and chalky toward the finish. Very pointed, and I prefer the creamier style, lately, but interesting.
