A wine of real sappiness and drive. White peach and poached pear meet sharp iodine minerality that grows more pronounced as the wine opens. The palate cuts with precision. Concentrated citrus and stone fruit riding a wave of smoky lees. That mineral backbone carries through the long finish, all tension and focus.
