Fresh and mineral, floral, juicy and bright, light to medium body (12.5% ABV), clean and with nice varietal typicity, green herbs, yellow fruit, good length.
Deep and spicy (both soil and cooper) but not sweet, black pepper and violets, peach, intense black fruit, mineral and juicy, creamy cherries, balancing freshness, slightly resinous finish, good length with a hint of espresso. Even better in 12-24 months.
