Tight nose, minerals and a bit of petrol/rubber balloon. Austere to start on the palate without much fruit, medium+_acidity and some lemon pith bitterness. This improved with air though, the acidity and bitterness integrated and nice minerality showed through. Give this some air.
Nose is a bit reticent, slightly tropical. Off-dry palate, balanced fruit and medium acidity, well-integrated with smooth transitions. Touch of heat is the only nit.

Great nose of fleshy white peach and basil. Off-dry palate with some viscosity. Peaches and lemon, nice balance.

Pretty nose of flowers, spice and sweet apples. Sweet on the palate with lush, syrupy fruit and low acidity. Not bad, but too flabby for my taste.

Lush nose of cotton candy and mango. Not nearly as sweet or lush on in the mouth. Well balanced with nice weight and medium, lemony acidity.

Beautiful sweet, spicy nose. Concentrated, layered fruit on the palate. Ripe apples balanced with medium+ acidity. Delicious.
