From the jug at the blendery. Pours clear yellow-gold with a scattering of bubbles on top. The nose holds vibrant citrus, tangerine, lemon and grapefruit. Light sweet flavour with restrained acidity, mellow woody dryness, some lemon rind, more grapefruit. Light bodied with faint carbonation. Quenching finish with more lemon rind, tangerine and subtle grassy bitterness. Outstanding.
