a honeyed note clings to the ripe fruit of bosc pear. the palate adds immense and appetizing spice to the pear notions, edging it with pepper and yeasty notes of soy and sandalwood. the palate is ripe and concentrated but deeply textured and made precise by zesty grapefruit freshness. it appears compact and precise and has a lasting, impressive impact, shining with pure fruit and aromatics. lovely now but certain to improve with some bottle age. drink 2017–2035.
