Nose: "Noble, pedigree expression, intensely sensual with the olfactory impact of great elegant winey complexity (malted cereals, floral aromas of acacia, broom and orange blossom). The resonance of a mineral setting highlighting the sparkling concentration of intense ripe fruit (roast coffee, toast, mild spices and blond tobacco)."
Palate: "A full-bodied texture with hints of freshly candied citrus, ripened white- and yellow-fleshed fruits (chocolate-coated orange peel, dried apples and rhubarb) on a bed of many-layered flavors (quince paste, apricot and almond biscuits and beeswax). The wine is characterized by a bewitching yet expressive charm, in which its generosity carries the finish towards a deliciously mineral chalkiness."
