Nose is a bit quiet. Some caramel, tropical and yellow fruits but seems backwards and tightly coiled. Lovely elegant minerals. Very pretty and restrained. Love the strong granite component and elegant and subtle tropicality. Palate is just awesome. Rich, elegant, textured, opulent and shockingly pure. Amazing finesse. This is a very elite St. Joseph Blanc. Terrific gras, so much energy and freshness for days. This is as good as St. Joseph Blanc can get outside of Gripa Le Berceau Blanc. Wonderful. Excited to see it develop.
