Smoky minerals and ripe stone fruit build with compelling intensity. The aromatics are haunting. Wet stones, dried herbs and acacia honey that draw you deeper into the glass. Starts deceptively gentle before a surge of crystalline energy electrifies the finish. This biodynamic monopole from Clos de la Coulée de Serrant remains utterly unique. Pure expression of place.
