Ripe pear and tangerine meet crushed stone and wet slate on a palate that balances Tarraford's warmth with surprising tension. The texture is generous but not heavy, with citrus pith and white pepper cutting through the fruit. Finishes long and spicy, the acidity keeping everything taut and focused.
