Nose is surprisingly strong extra-sweet baked agave, olive and caramel. Very sweet and creamy on the tongue, the first sip offers a deeper agave flavour, a grassy herbal note and some minerals, with just a touch of bitterness. Finishes quickly with no burn - just the slightly bitter agave and mineral fade. This is a very impressive blanco! Although Jesus Maria was on my list of places to visit last year, I was talked out of it. This year will be different - that little highland town is producing some impressive goods.
