Medium lemon yellow core with a clear rim. Ripe yellow pear is accented by citrus aromas of lemon and mandarin orange. Tropical mango notes are surrounded by wafting creamy vanilla toast. Very ripe and bold in the mouth. Juicy mandarin orange, yellow pear and mango lead to some tangy pink grapefruit on the finish with a good dose of lingering creamy vanilla.

Medium ruby core with a pale pink rim. Ripe and brambly aromas of wild blackberry and boysenberry are joined by spicy cola, red cherry and a hint of smoky peat. Soft entry on the palate, with restrained and elegant fruit. Strawberry and red cherry lead to raspberry on the mid-palate. Rather smooth and delicate with a floral note of rose petals and touch of earth on the finish. Smooth and very well balanced.

Bright medium lemon core with a clear rim. Good intensity on the nose with bright lemon and lime softened by ripe yellow apple. The whole nose has a sweet orange blossom note lifting the aromas out of the glass. Very floral on the palate. Round and full-bodied yet with great balancing acidity. Oranges, lemons and limes are softened by the yellow apple. Just a touch of oak and cream rounds out the finish.
