TASTING NOTES :
NOSE: The bouquet opens with scents of apple tarte tatin with spun sugar, and strawberry doughnuts. Finally, raspberry brioche, medlar jam, kumquats, and lime emerge.
PALATE: The attack is marked by fresh pen on whiteboard notes, extra ripe bananas, and roasted pineapple. The palate reveals flavors of small brioche with dried fruits, thick molasses, warm clayey earth, and sun-ripened tomatoes on the vine. The finish is long and complex with touches of chai tea, vinyl records, and rubber poncho.
FINISH: Long and persistent, leaving a lasting impression of sophistication and depth with a hint of balanced acidity and sweetness.
