olive nose. Decants to beautiful starfruit and mango, lychee, rambutan. Taste is super dry and sweet playoff with super rich peach cobbler. Ohhh. So f’ing yummy. Easy 9/10! Palate is perfect with amazing dry and oily fruit dichotomy. So good. Lychee mango and rambutan flavors abound with sweet Valencia orange. Amazing. Peach ice cream, mild yogurt and mild tangy sourness with huge mango and starfruit. Oh yeah.
