"Expansive and exuberant on the nose and palate, offering flavors of grated coconut, baked white peach, clover honey, stargazer lily and pastry, with a powerful frame of crystalline acidity. This rich version is harmonious and shows a sense of overall finesse. The finely detailed mousse carries through the long, exotic finish of ripe fruit, ground cardamom and graphite."
