Chamomile, halva, raw hazelnuts, honey, dried apples, pomelo zest, and the whole dried tropics cabinet. Absolutely electric stuff with salt-laced acidity that pierces like an arrow. Those oxidative notes promise complexity but the oily texture doesn't quite deliver. Alpine herbs and smoke add tension, keeping things balanced if less thrilling than previous encounter with this label. Classic Robinot roulette - you never know which version you'll get.
Incredibly attractive bouquet of orchard, bruised apples, quince, seawater, zest, lemon, a bit of smoke, dry herbs, and Alpine herbs. Detailed, multilayered, and sophisticated. On the palate, it's fresh and energetic with nice smoky notes. Very long and detailed aftertaste. Perfectly balanced and delicious. Would love to see it aged.
