Comments: 

Floral and slightly fermented, the nose on this Pittyvaich is unimpressive at first. But give it time - it blossoms into highly complex layered flavours, with notes of lemon zest and even a slight toastiness. The finish is awesome - hugely complex and floral, buttery sweetness vying with minerally white wine.

Verdict:

I like this.
