Medium lemon. Still a little young but starting to show its class: filagree aromas of yellow apple, tangerine, hazelnut, almond, walnut, toffee, caramel, preserved lemon and grapefruit coming through. On the palate, the oak is quite forward (cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, sawdust) but in no way overshadows proceedings which also sport orchard fruits of apricot, pear and apple with a little citrus. Notable alcohol provides even more weight although it does not want for acidity. 2025-2026–MP
