Very pale gold with green tints. Complex aromas of white peach, nectarines and hazelnut nougat are overlaid by notes of struck flint and spicy French oak. Flavours of stone fruit, grapefruit zest and roasted hazelnuts are complemented by racy acidity, taut minerality and fine creamy texture.
It's pleasing to have some shape here. It's still tight, but there's fruit flavour. Splashes of lemon, mandarin peel and a dash of ginger spice. It's delicately floral, too. Oak is seamlessly integrated, with enough funky sulphides to warrant a disco move.
