Tightly coiled and granitic, with white peach buried beneath layers of flint and gunpowder reduction. The texture is dense and chewy, reminiscent of the estate's 2017, while chalky acidity drives through an endless finish. Everything feels locked down right now. This needs serious time. The minerality speaks pure Beechworth.
