The wine is light gold in colour. The nose is of a moderate intensity with a dominant aroma of oak ageing, such as butter, toast, freshly cut tree turning into peach, green olives, pear and quince. There is fresh acidity on the palate, a medium body and good fruit intensity; flavours of green apple, white currant, dough and butter in quite a long finish. Ready for drinking with a potential for ageing. Tasted blind.
