4.0@Norton

Quite expressive and approachable wine with an alluring bouquet of lemon, cider, bruised apples, blossoms, linden, and fresh bread. Fruity on the palate, almost full-bodied with flavours of damp cellar, bruised apples, and raspberries. It lacks a bit in freshness, but nothing terribly wrong.
