“There’s a distinct suggestion of citrus pith on the nose of this bottling, along with tight almond and sea salt aromas. The palate leads with a touch of ripeness,but finds a firm structure and chalky backbone, proving rather racy, albe it with hazelnut-like richness. A well polished wine.” —Matt Kettman
