Pale canary with powerful structure attacking nearly as spritz. Ripe peach, pear and soggy newsprint in the nose, sweet and angsty and beautiful though with a chalky angularity lined with Italian parsley and freshly-shampooed malamute.
The micro-air suspended in the glass releases sharp and biting on the tongue, driving an early softness into hard theory. The complexity of the nose goes awash in acidic/sweet luxury and the gentle pounding of the spritz. Rich and exuberant in finish, a thick, muscular body perfectly balanced in fruit and vibrancy. Really impressed with this wine. And my introduction to this brand.
