a touch of flint on fleshy peach is followed by juicy citrus and ripe pear bedded in nettle and watercress. together they present an immensely enticing nose, hinting at whole oceans of luscious fruit beneath the surface. the palate then invokes all the varietal spice: white pepper, arugula and chervil, illuminated by bright, zesty citrus to finish in a concert of layered zestiness. overtones of orange and pink grapefruit zest make it even more compelling. lip-smackingly irresistible and a paradigm of its vintage.
