Tasting notes
Made from only the ripest berries, the nose offers a very attractive minerality with ripe and fresh citrus fruits to the fore. There is a tremendous weight and concentration to this wine, dense and oily but backed up with tingling, linear acidity. This is wine full of paradox, honeyed and yet dry, rounded and yet firm. The rich fruit spice and minerality on the palate ensure a thoroughly memorable experience.
