The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing and refined aromas which start with hints of jasmine, apple and pear followed by aromas of pineapple, hawthorn, broom, honey, citrus fruits, almond and plum. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a crisp attack and however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors, agreeable. The finish is persistent with flavors of plum, apple and pear.
