Smooth and open-knit, offering spice- and smoke-accented citrus and orchard fruit flavors, along with hints of sweet butter and fennel. Finishes smooth, spicy and long, with a hint of orange and a zesty snap of minerality. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, March 2021)

Fresh and clean to start. The best part is in the finish, white cake and lingering fine acid. Big bang for the buck.
