Color is straw yellow, but nose is rich and has a whiff of oxidation, blanched almondy. Weird and fun mix of racyness and richness with ripe pit fruits, minerals, and searing acidity into a long finish.

Rich, with the bracing acidity that you would expect from this region (not enamel-stripping, however). Great with Ted's grilled fish tacos.

So autumnal and delicious. Ripping acid and limestone texture with ripe/oxidative orchard fruit, chamomile, honey, plentiful glycerol and musty lanolin. Tastes 5-7 years more mature than it actually is but in a good way
