Lime peel plus that saline/umami flavors of oysters and seafoam, and lots of mineral and crystalline nuances (iodine, chalk, wet granite). A distant touch of wet wool? But... that could have been triggered by the name of this wine, as well.. 🙂
Tight and nervous at the moment, this wine seems to fill in that spot in the chablis-vouvray-mosel triangle, of which I even wasn’t aware that it existed..!
Very pure, elegant and filigreed now, but I expect it to be slightly more espressive in a few years’ time.
