Color: Gold
The nose at first quite complex with hints of mint mingling with ripe fruit. A slight bitterness, notes of wax, a nice acidity of green fruit on top. A wide range of odors forming a pleasantly harmonious combination.
The first palate is slightly in contrast with the nose. I expected a sharp attack, more related to the alcohol, but the mouth is smooth, with a complexity, however, comparable to the nose. A subtle blend of bitter notes (cashews) and acid touches (green apple), all in a harmonious and balanced set.
The finish is smooth too. Long enough, it is mostly just like the fruity palate, a nice balance between the bitterness of the walnuts contrasting with green apple acidity, which disappears soon, giving way to a softly malted impression.
