Ripe Bosc pears, ripe pineapple, lemon juice, yellow peach, leeches guava, passion fruit & yellows florals. Palate matches the nose, thick mouth texture, notes of honey, creamy/oily. Round finish and nice restrained acidity.

£11.50 TWS. 2011 vintage. Really, really nice on first sip but not so good the next day. Shame, as I really enjoyed it on the first try. Would consider buying again.
