95/100 55

Stunningly pure wine with vibrant orange zest, apricot, lime, floral/rose and gently spicy flavours. There's also a hint of honey although the wine shows little evidence of botrytis influence and is pure rather than opulent. Sweetness is restrained by fine acidity. A wine with great cellaring potential.
