Man this is a smokeshow. Gorgeous nose. Orchard fruits, apple, pear, apricot and so so floral. Tangerine oil, citrus oil, so precise, evocative and expansive. Just brilliant. Lovely embiggening minerality. It’s extremely cromulent. Palate has incredible depth and wonderful fresh floral and intense citrus for days. So dense, juicy and complex with wonderful palate staining minerality, peach/apricot pith and intense juicy minerality. Wow this is juicy and structured. Amazing spine and somewhat tightly coiled but still explodes like a spring on the backend. Stunning length. Could use 5 more years. But wow. Stunner.

More on the delicious end of the scale on open. Very fruity tangerine. Citrus. Awesomely mineral of course. Nice acidity. Lovely nose. As it opens becoming more serious. Rocky finish. ... fast forward 15 minutes. Ok ... now it’s liable. I’m chewing on rocks in a lemon vineyard. Best lemons ever. Sweet lemons with the acidity of regular lemons. Ok that makes no sense unless you are a lemon geek. Nose is insane. Gods lemon oil. Mad love. Bought from Fass Selections.
