Pale gold in color. First impressions on the nose are of honeydew, melon and white peach. Grapefruit citrus notes are complemented by lemon/lime curd, pistachio nuts, creamy cashew, nougat and a complexing subtle rock flint character.The palate is no less enticing, ripe white peach, finger lime and lemon sorbet. There is a sweet creamy/biscuity character redolent of freshly baked cheesecake, most likely a lees/battonage influence. A fine line of balanced mineral like acidity adds length and bodes well for food pairing.
