Description du Goût
The ripening fruits have a distinct smell, but don't seem particularly interesting for fruit eating wasps. The breaking is still slightly milky, the bellows plump, rounded, well-shaped and elastic. The cut smells faint of the mild acidity and promising fruit. The taste is fresh, without nediterranean over-sweetness, and lies clearly between peach and strawberry notes up to fresh raw milk yogurt. The finish is characterized by the fresh acidity and reflects the mineral earthiness of its Franconian-Swabian origin. A real treat.
Maladies
