Good, but not great, by any means. It was straight from the fridge, which wouldn’t have done it any favours on length & complexity, and on warming this got a lot better. Mid-gold. Notable pineapple hints to an initially lemon nose. Not overtly oaky, but got progressively more like cinnamon & apple tart. Medium length, with a touch of minerality to the still primary fruit core.
