White peaches, toasted hazelnuts, flint, spiced pears, lemons and white grapefruit. Clove and nutmeg, too. Beautiful tension and phenolic texture, with a medium to full body, driven by bright acidity. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Lemon reduction and freshly toasted almost lift from the glass. The palate has all the hallmarks of a richly flavored Chardonnay with white peach flesh and freshly baked brioche; however, a fantastically taught acid line reins in the flavor and gives freshness and vitality. Beautiful.
