fresh pastry

but not a great vintage for Celestins

but lacks the weight of fruit to really drive it on into the long term

Fully mature, with an exotic, concentrated, kirsch filled blast of fruit, the jam, garrigue, spice and underbrush side also came out nicely. This is not a wine I'd hold for further aging, but it has been a fun ride since release.
