Wow! Vibrant, generous fruit, but piercingly fresh. Tart bananas and red fruit.

Strawberry bubblegum nose with super intense brightness on the palate. The first fay it had a pretty noticeable cough-syrup thing going on which calmed down within a fee hours.

Firm acid on entry, black cherry and cassis fruit (it was much more expressive when young), pleasant but mellow finish.
