WineSaint

Mint and dried tea lead the nose, giving way to citrus peel and a thread of orange zest. Graceful on the palate, ripe stone fruit and honeyed melon glide through with silky ease, carrying what must be substantial residual sugar with surprising lightness. The finish sharpens into clean mineral precision, lifting the wine rather than dragging it down. Elegant and finely balanced.
