Tasting note
Wonderfully crisp. Incredible weight and tension, even with 11.5% alcohol. Fresh apricot and citrus notes. Wonderful aromas of freshly picked apricots along with kiwi, meadow flowers and a whiff of mint. The palate yields sqeaky-clean fruit and even more refreshing mint notes. Light-footed, yet with immense power. Also fine extract sweetness and playful acidity with a vital salty tone. A long, elegant citrus finish. Such varietal typicity!
