Still a baby. Fresh latex-petrol from the get go, kefir lime leaves, tangerines, pear, pollen, crushed rock in the nose. In the mouth, the wine is tight, med body. Big fruit acid that makes this wine quite fresh- I am afraid I have to disagree with Rhode, this wine has tons of acid, and is still very, very young. Nose matched the palate, great evolution across the palate. Great intensity. This wine still needs a good amount of time to shed the baby fat. Drink 2027+ IMO.

Delicious. Golden in color with fresh cut apples on the nose. Slight acidity with just a bit of sweetness on the finish.

Delicious. Light gold color. Oak notes on the nose. Apple flavor up front; sweetness (hint of honey?) on the finish. Great as always.

Too sweet for me, but that is my mistake for making the purchase
