Medium golden color. Developed nose with pronounced fleshy apricot aromas. Very warm fruit notes mixed with spicy, flowery and earthy tones. Medium sweet, medium(+) acidity. Light body. Medium intensity of red apple, minerals and spice. Long length.

Young and lively, still, after all these years. The acidity is still invigorating and the fruit is ripe and luscious. There is a fascinating earthiness in this wine, it is soaked with the imagery of a summer country landscape with the smell of warm earth, fragrant straw and ripe fruit, which lingers beautifully during a very long length. Beautiful!

In short: 
Excellent
