June 23, 2015 - Pale straw with a green hue. The nose has lemon and lime and sherbet notes whilst the palate has ripe apple fruit with a viscous, mouth coating texture but with a zesty, medium finish to leave the mouth clean. This was tasted alongside ABC 2010 Los Alamos and whilst this was excellent it didn't reach the heights of its older sister.
