    Vintage Description:

    Delicate bouquet with aromas of tangerine zest, vineyard peach, nuances of blossom honey, underlined by dark minerality. Juicy on the palate, elegant, fine extract sweetness, structure rich in finesse, very good length, lime in the aftertaste, great aging potential. (Falstaff, June 2018)
