N: Clean, pronounced intensity ripe fruits like melon and pear, citrus, vegetal notes like peppers and asparagus, a distinctly metallic smell on the nose, wet wool-like characteristic (also described as plasticene), slight oak flavours also contribute to the whole.
P: Dry, high acid, med body stony or metallic flavours hit right from the start (but not unplesant, almost makes one feel closer with the soil the grapes were grown in - sense of terroir with this wine) Citrus and vegetal notes with a hint of ripe apple fruits
Long finish
Conclusion: Very good quality wine - it's a nicely complex wine that deserves to be contemplated further.

Deepening colour. Nose of honey, fig, lime. Palate is full and full of lemons, limes and a little oak. Medium finish. Good acidity. Good value.

My system (nose mouth finish) /++, high tones, lemon zest, with a little more time the nose might improve
