Tasting Notes

Nose

Floral. American cream soda, fizzy sherbet, lemonade. A little water concentrates the aroma well. Has delicate complexity and a dry edge.

Palate

Fragrant. Icing sugar, elderflower, polished wood. Light and rather fragile.

Finish

Sweet. Grapes dusted with icing sugar.

Comment

Like lace on the palate. Treat carefully.
