All over the place, taste and aroma-wise. Nice burnt brown sugar, but clunky structure and a pretty evident gasoline smell kept me at arm's length.

Side-note: pairs well with red bean pastries.

Great balance between the Verdelho and Malvasia. Loads of lime blossom and grapefruit with touches of salted caramel to keep the acidity in check.

Toasted hazelnuts and cherry skins, beautifully balanced, not too sweet.
