The subtle nose seems a bit shy, offering delicate, yet complex aromas of red apple, pear, spice, mealy, mineral, and vanilla notes. The flavoursome medium-full bodied palate is dry and elegant with very nicely balanced flavours of red apple, vanilla, and pear replays joined by buttery, flinty mineral, and touches of spice in a complex profile. Acids are very well balanced, while citrus, apple, and vanilla notes linger on the exceptionally long finish. Tasted May 2025.
