Lime zest and green apple hit with bracing intensity, underscored by wet slate and that telltale Watervale petrol edge. The palate is all sinew and nerve. Bone-dry, mineral-saturated, finishing like a blade. This austere style from Grosset's Springvale vineyard won't seduce; it challenges. Those who appreciate German trocken precision will find their match here.
