22.04.2006 This location is a must visit if you're in Shanghai. A beautiful centre piece at the riverside of Pudong. Notes. Very light colour. Fruity with banana and coconut. Wood and spices well integrated. Palate is oily and naturally sweet with dried fruit and vanilla. Finish is long with light wood, caramel and light smoke.
