Tasting note |
An airy and attractively layered nose presents primarily floral, pear and citrus peel aromas that display a background hint of matchstick. The energetic but impressively rich flavors possess a lovely texture, indeed this is finer than most examples of the genre, all wrapped in a saline-inflected finish where the citrus character telegraphed by the nose reappears. This serious effort will clearly need at least some bottle age as it's presently very tight. By Allen Meadows, Jun 2015. |
