"Fantastically delicious and ultra-sophisticated. The balance has found its footing from the start. Floral, toasty, fruity, buttery, perfumed, honey-soft, refreshing, stony, elegant, crisp, toffee-drenched, nutty. It doesn't matter which positive adjectives one uses. All you seek shall be yours! Good maturity even on magnum. Beautiful perfection in the magical Corsican sunset."
