Elegance and perfume are the highlights on the nose – jasmine, lemongrass, kaffir leaf and galangal meet with the varietal pedigree of freshly cut lime and lemon.
Energy and vitality is at the forefront on the palate, native finger limes is the thread with subtleties of lemon sherbet surrounding. A delicate mouthfeel through the core is gently balanced with a fine and mineral acid line.
