Smells like crazy swimming pool in a great way. Opulent and rich yet super acidic and so clean. Deep and so long.

Lovely aromas. Mint, honey and hay aromas. Palate is balanced and pretty with nice texture. Needs air.

Nose is green. Palate is hard Apple cider. Good cider with nice juiciness.

A little effervescent on opening but that faded into a very tasty, crisp wine. Some balancing sweetness of melon and apple but in no way overwhelming the acidity. Very very enjoyable.
