Top Notes For
Suprisingly energetic and lengthy, even though it was obviously aged. Poured out with a bright, medium gold shade. On the nose, it had notes of honey, lemon custard, peach, green apple, smoke, ginger, and hints of chamomile and petrol. The palate was textured and voluminous, with a surprising amount of acidity. The finish was herbaceous and honeyed, with some stoney elements. A very decent experience.

Oct 8th, 2016A great combo of bright lime, lime zest, and crisp peach fruit with a burnished hint of petrol, dried leaves and minerals. Petrol, earth, mineral with lime candy quality. Great length and verve but a touch of heat impacts the mineral finish.
