In a great place. Confectionary nose of burnt brown sugar, peach, lemon, and minerals. Lovely. Palate is very well integrated with terrific purity and freshness. Nice rich mouthfeel and accented by freshness. Balanced and pure.

Sponti. Creamy, mineral, vineyard peach, super mineral, intense minerality. Bone dry and super clean. Needs a few years. Juicy mineral expression. Grippy. So clean. Amazing how clean and precise.

Nose is like a creamy green apple. As it opens some giving citrus fruit.

Palate has pleasant fruit. Some minerality but not much.

Nice with food. Likely not a typical vintage.

I love this wine. A hint of tropicality enrobed in minerals. Very distinctive. Very zippy. Almost sweet rocks. But dry.

As this opens its almost like petrified pineapple. Bracing acidity to make it bright but not acidic. Really terrific. Amazing with food.

Palate texture is amazing. Finely dusted rocks on the long finish.

This is not dense or complex enough to be profound. But it’s fantastically well made. An utter joy to drink.
