Weighty mouthfeel yet velvety and coats the palate. Starts off with strawberry flavors and quickly evolves showing generous notes of earl grey tea, orange peel, and rose petals. A long, acidic finish. Not a doubt in my mind this would finish strong in a blind tasting. Again a textbook example of its what’s in the bottle that matters not the label. Stock up while you can. There wasn’t much.
