The aroma here is a bit like the conflicting summer smells on a farm.  A combination of honeysuckle and rustic barnyard.  The flavor unfolds with many layers of flowers and fruit: lavender – honeysuckle – jasmine – orange blossom – peaches/apricot, lime and tart berries.  Along with a high acidity-tartness, there is a certain earthy feeling in the mouth too.  Put a touch of sugar in this one — you will not regret it.
