The wine was bright, light lemon in colour and offered floral notes, peony, tropical fruit, fresh citrus and soapy notes on the nose, complement by a whiff of fresh herbs. On the palate, the wine showed tropical fruit, maracuya, pineapple, fresh citrus, grapefruit and gooseberry as well as a soapy rosewater component, with moderate acidity and average length of the pleasantly bitter finish. The fruity, medium-bodied wine was reasonably balanced and tasted fresh despite its moderate acidity. The score of 88 might be generous given the wine’s average length, but it felt like a relieve to taste something completely different from Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay again, so being generous seemed appropriate.
