"Bright aromas of lime, fresh apple, spice, honey and coconut. Dense and powerful, with fresh limey acidity giving the minerally flavors superb definition. Really exhilarating balance of sweetness and acidity. Very long, bracing aftertaste is almost painful today but this superb wine already offers a pliant texture."
