Ginkgo smash rot blows off to wildflower honey and brioche, tart pineapple, chamomile, yellow apple, ginger nose. Tart starfruit, lemon zest, lime pith, lemon-lime peel; wound a little tight. Lemongrass and a green onion element I expect to vanish. Ginseng and glittering lemon oil and racing pith for a long salivating finish. Opened rich and unctuous, but narrowed to focused acid blast.

Slightly muted palate and nose. Good wet stone quality with herbal (in good way) finish. Notes of hazelnut may be indicative of the ripe vintage

Tried the 2014 vintage at a tasting event. Medium-full bodied with a great floral nose. Lemon, tangerine and apricot flavors lead into a nice lingering finish. Would like to revisit in a few years!

Took a sec... But finished as a classic Truffieres. Exotic wine.
