Pretty much at a perfect point; intensely fragrant of honeysuckle and lime blossom, elegant, supple and satiny, flinty tart apple fruit with exotic Thai lime and kumquat notes, super long shimmery finish. One of those bottles you wish had no end. — 6 years ago

8.0

Pale salmon, bold fragrant floral-Rainier cherry nose, big mouthful of tangy white cherry-ruby red grapefruit with a hint of bitter rind, alcohol seems a point higher than the 12.5 listed, especially as it warms in the glass, becoming oily in texture. A bit clumsy and disjointed, better with a brisk chill to keep it together. — 6 years ago
