Still ripping with fruit and acid. Nose is a little funky at first with classic green bell pepper. Opens up well after 10-15 min or so in glass.

Hollow mid-palate. Seems a little tired, maybe should have been consumed earlier.

Wow. Depth, persistence and concentration. Grapefruit pith, stony minerality and subtle lime notes. Great acidity keeps everything well balanced. Serious SB from CA.

Perfect beach wine served with cheese and hummus and snacks after a nice day of walking up and down the beach.
