Clear and bright, pale straw colour with a green tinge. On the nose an explosive character of citrus and lime awaits you, followed by layers of orange blossom and hints of honey suckle. A broad spectrum of flavours unfolds delightfully on the palate with a full, rich buttery mouthfeel. Layers of complexity culminate in a long lingering finish. Drinking exceptionally well now but will no doubt gain in intricacy with bottle maturation.
