Bright gold in the glass, the wine opens with green apple, honeysuckle and orange blossom. ̃e citrus in particular seems to be most evident, as lime leaf and lemon zest at this stage. ̃is vintage was more classic rather than overly ripe, so it’s not surprising. ̃ere’s a hint of fresh wood and vanilla as well, adding some nuance without overshadowing the beautiful floral character.
