Green olive and savory herb, check. Something reminiscent of pencil shavings as well. High acid, oxidative and slightly golden in color. Tart and bitter crab apple and underripe white peach.

Honey, stone fruits, maybe a bit of apple. Lots of acidity and some minerality

Such an interesting example of bordering on Bordeaux, not boring but not hot and burning either, such a wonderful example of a different white wine. Very restrained in character and understated wine. A true bargain. A true statement of s good taste!
