our notes are based on WSET Systematic Approach to tasting:

appearance:
clear bright with deep intensity golden color at the core and watery rim. with several thick luscious legs at the bowl.

nose:
clean, developping, medium (+) intensity aromas of dried fruits - raisins, apricots with layers of nuttiness, petrol, honey.

palate:
sweet with a medium acidity, medium (-) alcohol level, and a full body.   medium (+) intensity flavours at first of candied citrus fruits evolving to honey, dried apricots, hazelnuts.  with a smooth silky texture that covers the whole tongue like satin.  a long lingering finish teasing you to take another sip.

conclusion:
a good wine.  complex aromas & flavours.  beautiful texture on the palate and long finish
