Tasting notes
Aromas of apricot and mirabelle ; quite expressive for a wine bottled in April. Sweet and lush but quite light on its feet, with gripping flavors of soft citrus fruits and minerals. Very fresh and fine; still a bit youthfully tight but shows lovely harmony of elements from the outset. Finishes very long and spicy.
