An overtly floral nose combines notes of various white orchard fruit aromas with those of spice, citrus and whisper of wood toast. There is outstanding volume and mid-palate concentration to the powerful but succulent and seductive textured flavors that coat the palate with plenty of dry extract on the sappy, balanced and driving finish. Despite the volume and sap, this is clearly going to require at least a few years of bottle age and should amply reward 10 to 12.
