The purity and freshness of the fruit is out of this world.

Palate: Again, a little oaky but nonetheless quite interesting for the price. Nice splash of Plum and pencil shaving. The mid-palate is a little watery but the final is bone dry with quality tannins. Lovely and very good QPR. 87+ Voila ! Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comment
