Score: 17/20 Concluded by my actual tasting notes.
Nose: aromas of stone fruits, dried flowers
Palate: (attack) herbal substances, earth/minerals (Mid-Palate) Parsley & white pepper as top note vibrating with citrus and linden. Base with some old oaks.
Texture: Crisp, brilliant crystal
Finish: Med to long with some spiciness at first and ginger astringency lingering.
Reminiscence: On one clear day, things can be seen so far & clear. The breeze brings the fresh grass smell.

Score: 16.5/20 Concluded by my actual tasting notes.
Nose: Intriguing nose of damp earth, minerals. Stream of stone fruits, lemon zest & grass.
Palate: (attack) well positioned bright acidity, rocky minerals (Mid-Palate) Sensational earthiness, dried roses, elegant yet persistent. Bright herbal tone like wintergrass. Truly astounding !
Texture: Crisp like crystal. So rounded no edges.
Finish: Lime rocks, jasmine stands out during the long lasting finsh.
Reminiscence: I m standing on the Alps in Swizterland in the Spring time.
