Additional details

Cellaring:

This wine will undoubtedly benefit from cellaring, gradually unfurling into its full potential. If enjoyed young, decanting or extended exposure to air is recommended.

Nose:

Chalky and flinty aromas lift from the glass, interwoven with fleshy stone fruit, pithy citrus, and delicate hints of brioche and crème brûlée.

Palate:

The palate is rich and concentrated yet tightly coiled, showing tangy lemon, meringue, pie crust, oatmeal, and peach. A taut structure and piercing acidity bring precision, while an underlying richness and fleshy texture hint at what’s to come with time.
