Impressive packaging, one of the longest bottles i have ever seen! The wine is also very good.

A light yellow with a fleck of green, the nose is floral with citrus fruits, apple, a touch of kerosine and fennel.

Residual sugar gives depth and mouthfeel and the perfect canvas for mineral acidity to cut through the lime and mandarin fruited palate that has a textural phenolic flare to finish. Superb length. Superb balance.
