Wild herbs and volcanic smoke dominate the nose with rustic, farmhouse character that won't appeal to everyone. The palate delivers better, showing crisp orchard fruit lifted by razor-sharp acidity and distinctive mineral grip. Finishes with white peach and sea salt, though it lacks the depth for extended aging.
