Note from the Cellar Master

The nose reveals a suggestion of toasted bread combined with dried and baked fruits, leaning toward almond and citrus. The first mouth is brisk, softened by vanilla notes, followed by an explosion of luscious pear and culminating in a silky finish of fresh almonds and grapefruit.
