Certified Ripper. The nerve and cut of this wine is remarkable. Very Old World sensibility. Bone dry at 11% ABV and daringly low pH. Racy, high-toned citrus pith aromas and laser-like focus on the entry. The “baby brother” to the Vat 1 Semillon, but it is walking and talking and showing a decidedly grown-up attitude.

Wow. Chablis-like nervy high energy right away. Elegant unshowy bouquet of smoked flint and lemony chamomile. The hook is a round richness from time spent on lees. That’s where the complexity lives.
