There is something fetching between some flinty reduction and subtle volatility. Most burly and savory of the trio, with more wild, intense aromas and flavors. Rustic.

Revisiting. White flowers, cantaloupe, mango, citrus. Flinty, saline minerality. Round, fruit- and mineral-driven midpalate yields to long finish, abounding with acidity. Touch of oxidation, increasing in expression with air. Quite enjoyable.

Flint and slate, with defidels and Hawthorne on a bed of mix citrus, all in super balance.
