Racy, laser down the palate, deep mineral tones. Citrus peel, wet stone, crushed blossom, herbs, crunchy texture and powerful. So much purity

This was in great condition, drinking very nicely. Petrol and sea water give way to preserved citrus, wax and dessicated flowers. Full bodied yet acid driven and gauzy in a way that is typical of Leo Alzinger. Beautiful. 👏🦎

Wow. Maybe best white wine I've ever had. Incredible. Round yet so precise. Acid, incredibly long finish. Perfect combo of mineral and fruit. Amazing. @saru with addie.
