Tasting Notes

A dense and tight white with dried pineapple and apple aromas and flavors, as well as hints of brittle and toffee. Full body. Tight and focused. Long and flavorful. Drink or hold.

James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com, August 2019

The vineyard shines through here in tandem with the grape, giving a smoky struck flint and white pepper character that tames any exuberance of fruit and leaves a mineral, complex, lively nose. The palate is almost crunchy, bittersweet in fruit character with pithy citrus and oily exotic fruits in tandem. There is a tangible saltiness to the palate, coating the sweetness and ripe fruit notes. Unerring on a very long, complex, spice and mineral driven finish. 13.5% abv, Indice 4
