At D+0: 75%ile translucency, but the hue red to the edge. Closed nose: tart cherries? To taste gentle alcohol, gentle eucalyptus, something evoking the term ‘high toned’: not quite mint, nor spearmint. Maybe an echo of the long-lasting eucalyptus. Light but long: very drinkable now at D+0. More anon.
