Tasting Notes
· @Dmytro L
4.5Incredible concentration and richness with pleasant traces of ageing. Nuanced and detailed bouquet of apple tart, cider, damp cellar, chalk, lemon, ginger, and bitter herbs. On the palate, it's intense, structured, and balanced with high, pitchy acidity and a bit of a smoky and persistent finish with notes of apple tart, ginger, chalk, and jam. Delicious and quaffable.
