Intense nose - plum, apricot, nectarine, citrus peel, almond, honey, brioche. Lovely oxidative character throughout. Vinous and saline on the palate, citrus lifted by those hazelnut and baked-apple-with-honey notes. Compelling and delicious, though it fades faster than I'd like - drink it with attention, not as background.
