Translucent light salmon colour with a watery hue. The intensely scented nose features peach, musk and rose petal top notes with underlying winter strawberry, tangerine and light spice. A beautifully well rounded, silky feel encases delicious peach, subtle musk and strawberry flavours which show excellent concentration over a back drop of citrus and pebble stones. Dry refreshing finish with brisk acidity and a long, very moreish aftertaste.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.

Other Reviews….
Shimmering orange. Fresh pit fruit, red berry and floral qualities on the highly perfumed nose, along with suggestions of dusty minerals and orange zest. Juicy, focused and lithe on the palate, offering intense nectarine, red currant, strawberry and candied lavender flavors supported by a spine of juicy acidity. Shows outstanding clarity and mineral cut on a very long, sappy finish that strongly echoes the floral and pit fruit notes. Drink 2020-2025.
