This nervy white wine bears a nice straw tint and smells of freshly cut hay. Fruity aromas come through the grassy haze with pineapple and honeydew leading the way trailing citrus behind it. The palate is just as lively. Citrus plays a more prominent role, with intense minerality and a salty spiciness. The finish is clean and refreshing and stays a long time.

Didn't show well. Tight nose, acidity was out of balance and very hot on the nose.

Nice, very drinkable 2015. Crisp and light, great on a hot summer afternoon.
