Excellent,
Highly Recommended

Tasting Note:

A delightfully fragrant nose led by wildflowers, candied ginger, freshly sliced pear, and toasted nougat. The palate is expressive and pronounced, mounting a wave of dried fruits before finishing gently with a hint of butter pastry. A touch of sea salt minerality shows through in the finish.
