Score - 84/100
Final Thoughts - This had an amazing nose that was apparent from just opening the bottle. It just radiated this very nice pleasant aroma of bright flowers and citrusy fruits with a pleasant honey/vanilla backdrop. Sadly it fell a bit flat on the tongue as it had this slightly off putting bitterness throughout that was a bit distracting in this case since the flavors were so "light" in profile.
Would I drink it if offered? - Yes
Would I specifically order it? - Maybe?
Would I buy a bottle? - Not sure I'd pick up another.
