This has it a lot of great things going on. Elegant, powerful, aromatic, textural, balanced. Great primary front palate with plenty of flesh and extract. Mid palate shows much more cooling herbal notes that move into rocky, phenolic tones that carry through to an exceptional finish. Fruits are ripe and slightly tropical. Yellow peach, pineapple, yellow plum, spearmint, verbena, lime blossoms, minerals. Everything about this wine is seamless.
