Clean and collected. Aromatics are a whisper - and purely terroir driven. Stones, petrichor, and honeydew. Palate opens slightly, but remains reserved. Reminds one more of Loire then CA.

This is the Sauv Blanc, not Rosè of Grenache. A very well crafted wine. Nothing that blew my mind but spot on flavors.

Big melon on the nose, but very mild on the palate. Light mineral notes. Low acid, short finish.
