On the nose, a mix between honey and dentist office furniture… but in a good way. A golden hue, almost too golden but I presume no artificial coloring was used. Just striking. Front of the palette is dangerously soft and rings of currant with a splash of sea spray on the back end. Overall, inoffensive and not the main event. Personally, I’d save this for a night when socializing is the priority and you just need something to do with your hands. Water is detrimental to this bottle. The smallest splash only unleashed tannins for me, not much else.
