On the nose, white flowers, citrus blossoms, cream, citrus, pineapple, stones and a flinty quality. On the palate, very lean, perhaps a little too lean. Lemon, lime, white peach, pineapple, citrus blossoms, stones, same flintiness that was on the nose. The finish high but tamed acidity, fruits & body that are lean, ripe and bright.

Great balance of fruit and oak. Very complex with stunning stone fruits and great minerality fantastic length and poise.
