Wonderfully perfumed with rose petal and raspberries, earth and stems, it manages to be wild and beautiful all at once. The seduction on the nose is not matched, at least not initially, in the mouth. The wildness seems unchecked and the first glass seems medicinal and overtly gamey and adhesive. Still it gives the impression of expansion and with time it becomes more fleshy and layered and the finishing hardness seems to resolve and soften, though the savoury, slightly sappy edge remains.
