TASTING NOTES

• NOSE Pungent, with vinegary fruit shrub, notes jumping out of the glass – a sharp sourness overlayed with sweet lemons, apples, and grapes. Sweetness is at this heart, with syrupy notes balanced by the sourness and delicate touches of spice.
• PALATE A fruity palate, with fruit loaf soaked in unsweetened lemon and lime juice spread with sweet butter and dusted with icing sugar. As the fruitiness fades, minerality and spice emerge from the shadows.
• FINISH Soft and lingering, with sweet, creamy notes slowly becoming spicy before fading to a dry, apple skin end.
• COMMENT A vegetal nose packed with agave flavor leads you into a sweet palate with dry edges that is easy-drinking and surprisingly moreish.
