Quite a rich yellow / pale gold colour and on the nose plenty of butter showing but also with some bawling lemon fruit fighting to keep pace. Some nut and honey sit a safe distance away in the background.
Luscious texture to the palate, but not to excess (at least for my palate), with the lemon just slightly more prominant than the butter. The lengthy finish brings some nuttiness in to join the protaganists. The acidity is nicely supportive
Complex albeit not entirely subtle. A style of wine I enjoy, but I could see how others might seek a little more subtlety.
