A note of flinty reduction still clings to the pear and yeast notes on the nose of this wine. Apart from citrus zest, the palate almost dispenses with fruit, delivering instead a celery-salted, yeasty, tingling texture. It crackles on the tongue with its freshness and savor and leaves an immensely fresh, long aftertaste. Drink 2020–2030.
Seductive and harmonious, with a silky texture, well-integrated acidity and aromas and flavors of candied citrus, white pepper, chamomile and mineral that mingle with a moderately firm structure. Powerful and delicious now, but should develop well over time. Drink now through 2028. .
Green bean, lentil, lime and mango are invigoratingly tinged with white pepper on both the nose and the polished palate. Glycerol-richness and lusciously ripe fruit lend this bottling seductive appeal
