Editor note: Straightforward style, fairly cool nose with earthy and mineral notes, small yellow fruit, tea leaves, rosewood, vegetal notes, light animal traces and burnt old oak. Fairly cool again on the palate, still rather closed, very complex fruit, pineapple, lychee, apple and melon, with tart dried herbs, hint of rosewater, some candied citrus zest, moderate, integrated acidity provides backbone, very full-bodied and at the same time very elegant, almost imperceptible alcohol, needs time to develop, reductive with a light tannic touch, already has good depth and a good long finish.
