Nose good intensity and purity with lime and lemon rose petals aromas citrus mandarin 28/30
Palate and mouthwatering minerality. Real power and depth here. Dry to taste, the palate has great minerality mouthwatering lime and lemon acidity, long, dry finish. You just know this will aged beautifully 42/44

January 13, 2016 - [Tasting@FeltonRoad] This was unexpected! Light floral, hay and chamomile, oat-meal minerality on the nose. Coherent palate, with an easy acidity balanced ever-so-slightly with a soft off-dry character, lifted with concentrated floral cereals. Certainly some power, yet a youthful lightness and airyness about it. An impressive and beautiful play of light.

December 15, 2015 - Pale colour. Subdued bouquet. Notes of lime, some mandarin, stainless steel, wet river boulder and a hint of pineapple. Citric, malic and dry on palate, with limes, green apple and greengages. Also, a little slate and chalk. Good fruit weight and medium viscosity. Finishes bone dry and refreshing (I'd guess 3-4 gl RS). Fairly primary. Give it 3 years to settle down.
