Bright, wild, and just a little untamed. Forbidden lives up to its name. The nose rises with a heady rush of apricot must, sun-dried tangerine peel, and a teasing edge of guava that hints at something just out of reach. On the tongue, it’s a study in balance, light and lifted, but with a creaminess like lemon meringue that smooths into a crisp finish. Notes of lemon and quince flicker through like a blade of sunlight on cold stone, sharp, clean, and invigorating. This is the kind of sparkler that doesn’t shout, it hums, confident and quietly electric.
