Oreads is cloudy peach-golden color, with floral notes of roses mixed with tropical citrus and barley , and a pleasantly aromatic palate of heightened texture and acidity. Crazy fragrant – peach, pineapple, lychee, nectarine, jasmine, grapefruit. Beautiful hazy orange-rose. The flavor notes are of peach, jasmine, orange pith bitterness, grapefruit juice. Bitterness gives way to utter juiciness.
