Rich and intense with accents of marmalade and tart tatin. The palate has impressive breadth and depth. It is rich yet cleansing. A highly satisfying style.

Subtle savoury wet-stone aromas. Fresh and vibrant. Lots of lemon curd, red apple and toast. Excellent freshness and vibrancy with creamy texture. Good persistence.

Brassy lemon curd, hint crème brulée aromas. Rich lemon curd, brown lime, honey (botrytis?) flavours, lacy textures, lovely viscosity and mineral length. Delicious but advanced and atypical.
