Thursday, January 28, 2016 - Medium deep, reddish yellow peach color. Interesting, complex and curious nose with aroms of beeswax, cream, fresh tart peach, some banana pudding, a little herbal greenness and a touch of dusty earth. Dry, crisp and very intense medium-bodied palate with racy acidity. Pwoerful flavors of stony minerality, unripe gooseberry, unripe strawberry, some star fruit, a little green apple and a hint of tangy salinity. Good structure, further emphasized by the slightest hint of tannins. Long, bitter and savory finish with crisp acidity and an intense aftertaste of wet stone minerality, cranberry, red currant, some gooseberry and a hint of salinity.

A surprisingly intense, crisp and mineral rosé wine with remarkable structure and very austere character. Impressive stuff, but feels too painfully young right now. Needs several years to resolve. Recommended, but only after several years in the cellar. Expensive for a rosé at ~30€, but well worth it.
