Pale yellow. Tangy soft citrus aromas along with a note of flinty, leesy reduction; a bit youthfully closed today. Tight on the palate but with very good intensity to the slightly saline stone fruit flavors. An iodiney calcaire note and brisk acidity give the finish a penetrating quality. This needs aeration or time in bottle: I'd wait a few years. This has turned out very well.

Hugely rich wine, retaining its tense textured character while reveling in white fruit ripeness. Concentrated, with the wood acidity and spice mingling with the fruit acidity, this is a wine for long-term aging, powerful yet always very crisp. Screwcap. -R.V.
