On the palate it's medium-bodied and very fresh with just a hint of tannins. It shows mouth filling primary flavors of apricot, lemon, and blood orange complicated by spice, honey, and a nuanced nuttiness and very appealing salinity which combined to give it a bit of savoriness. Very giving finish.
