Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
Del Frate shows a brilliant golden yellow color and nuances of golden
yellow, very transparent. The nose reveals intense, clean, pleasing and
refined aromas that start with hints of peach, apple and honey followed by
aromas of apricot, pineapple, hawthorn, date, litchi, elder and vanilla.
The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a crisp attack and pleasing
roundness, however balanced by alcohol, good body, intense flavors. The
finish is persistent with flavors of peach, apple and honey. Del Frate ages
for 8-9 months in barrique.
