| Tasting Notes |
| Robert Karlsson | Ripe sweet fruits. Papaya? Melons? Orange marmelade definitely, thick. Really thick. Compact and attractive. Some spices in there also. Taste in full balance with the nose. But even sweeter, and the fruit transforms into even more tropical hues. This is seriously drinkable. Round. Not so long, but oh so tasty. |
