The depth of stone-fruit and exotic-fruit aromas on the nose almost knocks you back in your seat. Rich, ripe and succulent, but with spot-on balance. Then the very long, silky finish takes your breath away.
The bouquet offers pineapple, candied fruit and honey, but this vintage clearly has more room to grow and evolve. It's all primary fruit, but it is also more elegant as a result.
Very ripe and concentrated on the aromatic nose, hinting at ripe citrus and orchard fruit complicated by an air-dried quality. Then just slightly livelier and fresher in the mouth, but still rich and polished, with a luscious mouthcoating quality to its ripe honeyed yellow and green fruit flavors. Closes long and juicy.
A distinctive white, lush and creamy on the palate, with a honeyed range of dried white cherry, glazed tangerine and papaya fruit, myrrh, chamomile and dried mint. Medium- to full-bodied, this is balanced by soft citrus peel acidity and a subtle, tactile chalkiness. Spiced finish. Friulano.
