A light golden straw color. The nose is full of apricots, lemons, and grapefruit that is still so fresh. From the first sip the palate was light on its feet with crisp acidity, apricots, peaches, a dash of waxiness, and just splash of white pepper and spice on the lengthy finish. The Redoma Reserva is a stunner, this baby brother shocked me with how well it's holding up still. While I don't see it getting better from here, who cares as this is absolutely singing right now and will for at least another 2-3 years or longer.
