Lots of citrusy aromas driven by lemons. A whiff of lychee and green melon peers through too.
Some of the fruit was barrel fermented, and whilst the texture adds some neat complexity, I can't help but think the fruit has been hemmed in a little and hasn't expressed itself as much as I would have like. A creamy character takes the stage and is nicely balanced with delicate weight.
Drink now with oysters or creamy pasta dishes.
Very good.
