Amber in color, drinking quite well. It’s a bit exotic, and alcohol is a little elevated. Bruised yellow apples, orange oil, a touch of oxidative notes, baked hazelnuts and acacia honey. Persistent finish.

Aug 21st, 2016Pure liquid gold. More akin to a top dry sherry than any wine I have ever tasted. On my second day and the flavours just keep multiplying. Incredible stuff! Wish I had more.
