Crushed oyster shell and lemon zest drive the nose, with white peach emerging slowly. The palate shows striking precision. Lean, focused, almost austere in its current form. Bright acidity cuts through subtle richness that hints at the Sweetwater vineyard's depth. Needs 3-4 years to soften and reveal its full character.
