Beautiful stuff! Racy yet restrained. Turns richer with air and temperature but still maintains balance, never gaining heat or weirdness. I kept going back for more.

Pungent NZ gooseberry grapefruit nose, but overdoing it. Hints of country herbs. Polished, clean, smooth Loire-ish mouthfeel. A kick of acid on the finish commands attention. Solid and full bodied SB.
