The nose’s pineapple, mangosteen and guava give this a vivid tropical-fruit centre, while grapefruit and the greener, mossy notes keep it from reading as simply sweet. On the palate, fleshy mango meets underripe grapefruit, green apple core and a lightly tannic, white-wine-like edge. That contrast is the most interesting part for me. The finish is described as subdued, so the fruit-led complexity seems more compelling than a lingering close.
Unusual green fruit and mineral notes, with a subdued finish.
