Nose: Fruity and light, evoking an early summer morning. Peaches and apricot lead, followed by soft vanilla and caramel with time.
Taste: Full bodied and vibrant. Orchard fruits dominate, lifted by white pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg and a refreshing hint of citrus.
Finish: Medium long. More orchard fruits and gentle sweetness, rounded by mild oaky spice.
Comment: Bright fruit with gentle spice.
