Tasting Notes: inviting lavender and milky earl grey tea ride a rhubarb bridge over the surging ruby red grapefruit. All the while, Combe Trousseau's steadfast savory undertone - dried herbs and soil - gives a layer of seriousness. Bursting firm cherries and a bright sun-kissed playful mouthfeel carry through the crusading citrus undercarriage before being washed over in the crunchy, high-acid finish.
