The colour is green-yellow with a few greenish hues. The nose is expressive and intense aromas of ripe apricot, mango and orange rind while aromas of elegant high quality French oak follow such as vanilla and honey. Fruit forward richness fills the mouth with flavours of rich cream, coconut and hazelnut butter. The finish has duration, volume, intensity and great complexity
