Honeysuckle and ginger spice lift from the glass, underscored by wet stone minerality. The palate cuts clean with quinine-bitter pear skin and citrus pith, while a thread of honeydew melon softens the edges. Taut and nervy through the finish, with floral echoes and mineral grip that suggest excellent cellaring potential.
