Aromas of tart cranberries and candied orange peel mingle with notes of white pepper and spearmint. The palate is brilliantly lifted as tart raspberries and piquant white pepper notes carry the forepalate. A core of spicy chicory root is balanced against early-season strawberries and a linear minerality with hints of salinity at the finish.
