Toasted sesame and roasted nuts lead on the nose, giving way to crisp apple and ripe stone fruit. Concentrated and almost viscous in texture, yet firm acidity keeps everything focused and alive. The mineral thread builds steadily through a long, persistent finish, the kind that lingers well past the last sip. Old vines doing their work.
