Nose: Clean and intense aromas of white flowers and ripe apricot. Sweet orange marmalade notes mingle with herbal hints of thyme and rosemary. A subtle olive scent adds complexity.
Palate: Rich and full-bodied. The fruit notes from the nose carry through, with apricot and orange taking center stage. Herbal elements of thyme and rosemary provide balance. A touch of salinity reminiscent of Mediterranean air. The high ABV (52.8%) is noticeable but not overpowering.
