Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

same style as that of the SigV, fresh, coastal, with some oils, seashells, a little tar, ashes, brine, oysters, lemon juice, sauvignon blanc…

restaurant Palate

even more so, but I would tend to like this one a little better yet, for it's greener, more on granny smith, wakame, extreme oysters (open sea), and olives. Olives will save the world and bring peace everywhere

timer Finish

rather long, with a salty manzanilla-y character. Only the aftertaste is a tad bitter and a little too much on bark
