Nose: Big and fruity, with a slightly earthy character but no real funkiness to speak of. With time, tropical fruits emerge, particularly ripe pineapple, accompanied by gentle hints of citrus.
Taste: Full bodied. Rather sweet, with red berries and orchard fruits taking centre stage. White pepper adds a gentle spiciness, while a pinch of salt provides a nice contrast.
Finish: Medium long finish. The fruitiness becomes lighter and more playful now, with notes of fruity chewing gum and Tutti Frutti sweets.
Comment: Big fruit with a playful finish.
