Gorgeous nose. Lemon drop, lime pith, light oak, palate is laserlike, super dry, phenolically bitter, gorgeous apple skin, savory, saline, seawater, mineral, super rocky minerals, deep, gets too and every nook and cranny. Little more fat on the nose, long. Excellent lacks a little finesse because of youth. Needs 3 years.

Really great seawater and acid mineral nose, like oyster. Spice on the nose, grape skin spice, not oak spice. So lean that it requires non-fruit descriptors. There is a good citrus component, tangerine zest and royales of lemon (no pith whatsoever), and some fresh orchard fruit, lean like Asian pear. The oak and grape skin finish integrates really well, slightest vanilla and aniseed sweetness and ginger spice. Really excellent.
