Story: Andreas Larsson Best Sommelier in The World: “Pale straw colour. Complex and layered nose offering ripe stone fruit, apricot, sweet citrus with floral and nutty notes. The palate has a very good bite and vital fresh- ness, intense and lingering with pure stone fruit, hazelnut, a nutty spiciness, good volume and a rounded texture followed by a long lingering finish with a bright freshness all along.” 92/100
