Drank with Dad on my first day back in Charlotte in May 2020 (for what should have been the week before my wedding). Smooth and light with a little hint of tart at the end. Drank again in the virtual Petit Phillipe Lioco tasting on May 29, 2020– hints of tart, mouthwatering, balanced, a little saltiness and lime.
