Bright gold. Not the purest expression I have come across. Very high acidity! And quite tannic still. Hard. I suspect this will always be a bit austere. (JR)
A very fresh nose of dried white flower, earth and a background note of sliced lemon precedes rich, round, forward and delicious medium-bodied flavors that possess good tension and precision on the lightly minerally finish that is admirably persistent for a wine of this level.
