  - Straight from the bottle.
  - Optical impression: medium lemon yellow with golden reflexes.
  - Nose: medium + intense nose with youthful aromas of ripe apple, lemon peel, lime, grass and clearly noticeable floral notes. Sunflowers, acacia, elderflower are noticeable. From time to time the fruit aromas change to more lychee and pineapple and quite a lot of wet stone.
  - Mouth: dry, high acidity with a pleasant drinkability. But the medium (+) body also shows the high alcohol and the bundled power. Unfortunately, the alcohol is quite present, also somewhat due to the oily texture. In the mouth, the aroma variety is not (yet) as pronounced as in the nose, a slightly greenish touch shows up. Very direct and long finish!
  - Definitely has a lot of ageing potential, but at the moment the high alcohol is a bit "disturbing".
  - 91-92 P
