Thursday, March 21, 2019 - Shimmering pale gold/green tinge color...floral and tropical, banana skin wax, crushed chalk, lanolin oil, cool sea breeze nose. Little shy at first on the palate...showing waxy pitted and tropical fruits, with a refreshingly zippy citrus cut...a lovely subtlety and savory chalkiness, classic lanolin and wax. With 30mins of air it has creamed up really nice, almost an oily texture now, yet still obtaining super fresh tartness, staunch minerality, and pretty florals. What harmony for such a youngster...and it REALLY gains on you after the first glass! Super impressed!
