Tasting notes：

Nose: The bright fruits are already noticeable (nectarine, maracuja) but also the chalky notes and the green vegetal touch that is not uncommon in these vintages. Lemon peels, fresh laundry, some pineapple. Embrocation and wax candles. Rape seed blossom and tree sap. Hints of limoncello too.

Mouth: A fresh fruit salad of grapefruits and lemons, with flashes of passion fruits. Not the most exuberant version, held back a little by pine resin and waxy notes, as well as dried hints of dried herbs. Some mineral salts and more candles. Then drops of honey before it fades back to citrus peels.

Finish: Quite long, on lemon balm and herbal sweets, as well as green lemon zst.
