Brilliant very pale straw colour with watery hue. The nose displays fragrant top notes of lime and lemon followed by some orange rind and a hint of talc showing excellent intensity. The palate exhibits mouthwatering lime and lemon flavours followed by a touch of orange rind with a crisp minerally dry finish. Long aftertaste of lemon, lime and mineral.
