What an expressive nose with very beautiful fruity notes with some nice hazelnut hints behind. A very nice balance between the gently woody smells and fruit (banana?) and pleasant vanilla sniffs. A touch of wet paper follows then. A very promising nose anyway.
The fruit remains present in the palate, still in perfect balance with the wood which remains as fine as it was during the nosing. After a while, very clear coconut hints appear. This is just "bounty", may be quite an acid bounty. Is this due to pineapple?
Very nice finish as well. Nice hints of coconut with a slight memory of rose wood.
