Outrageous right now. So silky and a hint of petrol. Awesome texture and apricot on finish. Singing.

Beautiful nose. Wow. Honeyed and so ripe but with incredible purity and detail. Tangerine and a hint of sponti. Beautiful minerals. A sense of depth. Wow. What a palate. Freak show. That acidity is LIT! 🔥🔥. Wow, such depth and elegance with super precision but also that loose vibe this wine always has. Lovely, long finish. Stunning. Holy sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit. Clay Davis approved.

Nose is flinty. Almost smoky.
Palate is green apple. Very mineral. Balanced.

Big wine. Lots of citrus, various citrus fruits entire, lemons especially and tart small oranges, cara cara oranges. Needs some air, let’s see how that grows. Big spice on the finish. Flowers, like Lilly and slight lavender. It’s a powerful nose, maybe somewhat unresolved, I have to see how it plays out. After some air lots of saffron and some plastic water bottle on the nose that grows. Beeswax. Honeysuckle. Lots of acid. Tons of acid. Needs some time I think.
