Absolutely up to expectations. It has an explosive bouquet of banana, ripe melon, vanilla, butter and limoncello (except for the warm ethanol sensation). Round and actually interesting palate. Aye, it’s vulgarly sweet. But it has good and friendly acidity to give at least some idea of freshness, at least at the beginning. And what amazes me the most - it has some minerality. The aftertaste is not that long but has flavours of green apricot, green melon, lime and river pebbles.
