Quite lifted and floral, white lily blossoms, apricots, honey and ginger spices. The palate showed lemon, apricots and a bit of spice, and finished dryly, but where the wine excelled for me was the mouthfeel; it was just a little oily and a little acidic, ripe, flavoursome and fresh without being sticky or cloying. A classy and balanced wine that displayed no heat despite the 14.5% abv.
