Blind Assessment

Delicately rich, sweetly tart. Bergamot, lilac, cocoa nib, apricot, hazelnut in aroma and cup. Sweet-tart structure with high-toned yet juicy acidity; delicate, silky mouthfeel. The flavor-saturated finish leads with bergamot and lilac in the short, rounding to cocoa nib in the long.
