Bright citrus and white stone fruit cascade over a foundation of crushed oyster shell and wet limestone. The texture strikes a beautiful balance. Substantial without weight, carrying flavors with precision rather than power. Oak whispers rather than shouts, lending subtle spice that enhances the vineyard's inherent complexity.
