Elegant, austere and straightforward; slow evolution over years; delicate, salty and subtle-fruity aromas in a profound and concentrated body; cool and lasting on the palate and beyond.
The green peach and lemon grass character are very pronounced. Hints of salt and fresh herb. Medium to full body, bright acidity and a flavorful finish. Drink now.
92 points – James Suckling

An earthy touch of wet soil is first to appear in this wine. It's soon replaced by bright lemon zest notes. That lemony freshness stays throughout, brightening the entire palate with fresh, taut, tingling flavor. This is ripe but gloriously tart, finishing on a very pure, lip-smacking and long lemon note. Lovely now, it will evolve. Drink 2018–2028.
