Brand new release. Promising but formative - needs time time to reach its peak.

Pale lemon colour. The nose is clean and developing, showing medium+ intensity aromas of cream, rye bread, walnut, green apple and lemon peel.
The wine is off-dry in the mouth with a high refreshing acidity. It has a medium alcohol and a medium body. It has medium+ intensity flavours and a medium+ finish.
Very nice, it has a nice concentration balancing the acidity with the support of the dosage. It is persistent and it shows some complexity provided by lees ageing, albeit not enough to consider it outstanding.
