Mind-boggling confectionary aromas; part cotton candy, part spiced treat in a Moroccan bazaar. Then citrus, quince and vanilla cream. Palate is pure energy. Ripping acid, endless concentration. The vinous equivalent of seeing god?

Need to check in… 15 years?

Tropical fruit and wildflowers on the nose, expressing as unripe pineapple in the mouth, dandelion, foudre, opening up with notes of walnut, walnut oil, pecans, sunflower seeds, and all kinds of umami goodness.
