Light body reflects the 12% ABV. Angular bordering on aggressive, lemon-zing acidity that doesn’t mellow much with air. Citrus with some underlying minerality. Very lemony without a lot of depth. I’ve had this over the course of a few nights, and it’s left me feeling underwhelmed.

4th Deals Gastronomy Fair (Intercontinental Hotel): Mild stone fruit aromas, pear, green apple, mild yeast notes, toast, lemon leaves, lime and lemon acidity notes. In the palate, the wine shows med to high acidity, lemon, lime, stone fruit, tropical fruit, med body and intensity, med finish. Very good quality, drink now or hold

Grapefruit, white peach, chalk and white flowers on the crystalline, tangy nose. Some sulfur also at first which quickly went away. The palate is super firm with piercing acidity and lots of chalky minerality. Some nice herbal/spicy action on the pithy finish. The wine grabs the palate quite hard and yet strangely almost seems to evaporate. Light on its feet with absolutely no fat, this is some highly drinkable stuff.

Fruit in the nose with tropical - banana, pear, flint. Very lemon and citrus on the palate, minerals, fresh, nice. Nose - 5/6, Palate - 5/6, Finish - 4.5/6, Je ne Sais Quoi - 1/2 = 15.5/20.
