Blind Assessment: Tangy citrus, berry and mild, perfume-like floral aromas. Lemony bright acidity and full, juicy mouthfeel. Lemon-toned citrus carries from aroma to cup but is balanced by an elegant sweetness and hints of blueberry. Clean yet tart finish.
Who should drink it: Those who seek a bright, citrusy cup with impeccable environmental and social credentials.
