WineSaint
Pungent citrus oils and wet limestone drive this powerhouse Rothenberg, backed by concentrated glycerol weight that grips the palate. The mineral intensity feels almost volcanic, with hints of bergamot and dried herbs threading through the dense core. Tightly coiled. Give it five years minimum to unwind.
