Review

Pale golden yellow, silver reflections, fine, persistent mousse. Fine pear fruit underlaid with a hint of bourbon vanilla, white almonds and biscuit, a hint of mango, and candied orange zest. Complex, juicy fresh tropical fruit, delicately reminiscent of ringlets, silky texture, lively structure, lemony-salty nuances on the finish, a firm food companion with aging potential.
