Oyster shell and wet stone dominate the nose, with hints of dried citrus peel emerging. The palate shows remarkable evolution. What starts as taut lemon and pear expands into roasted hazelnuts and subtle smoke. Saline minerality drives the long finish, while concentrated stone fruit adds weight. Impressive development for seventeen years.
