Wednesday, March 20, 2013 - Fragrant, spicy, yellow flowers, plum skin, smoke and oxidative, macadamia nut and resin notes. The nose has a lot of depth. On the palate, this wine is very bright, creating drive and length with sweet, resonating yellow plum and citrus notes leading to a long, saline finish. My first time to use this descriptor: pomelo, including a bit of pith. This is a wine that would be easy to dismiss at first glance but has wonderful depth, nuance and individuality that make it fun.
