White peach, quince, and ripe pear open the nose alongside honeysuckle and a delicate rowan blossom lift. Lush and glycerol-rich on entry, the palate builds quickly — candied lime peel, almond paste, and salted caramel layered over a core of pure, concentrated fruit. What keeps this from tipping into excess is the sharp thread of fresh cress and the stony, mineral undercurrent that cuts through the sweetness with real precision. The finish is long, pure, and compulsive — the kind that makes the next sip feel necessary. Drink now through 2040+.
