Intense and pithy attack which is rich, textured (dare I say phenolic), soft and tropical. Then follows the mid palate which has a ridiculously aromatic “gin and tonic” quality with all the flavors of the nose making an appearance which remain taut before fattening to a finish of great length that is held together by a peaky, mouth-watering acidity while at the same time being rich and textured.
