"Light greenish-yellow, with a golden shimmer and a very lively, fine mousse. Alluring bouquet with nuances of honeydew melon, white tropical fruit, a floral touch reminiscent of Scotch broom, fresh pear, and minerality: a multi-faceted bouquet. Composed, elegant, and ripe peach/pineapple nuances, with an elegant structure; saline, delicate nuances of roasted nuts and a subtle touch of honey on the finish. Seems immensely youthful, with still further potential for aging; a perfect, distinguished Cristal from top to toe."
