This wine opens with notes of white grapefruit, elderflower, lime peel, and a signature touch of gunflint smoke. The palate is sharply defined with brisk acidity, carrying flavors of crisp green apple, citrus oil, and a saline finish. It's pure, linear, and lifted, showing both finesse and quiet power. Expect a complex bouquet of white fruits like pear, peach, and apricot, with white flowers and a mineral hint, leading to an elegant, fresh taste with excellent acidity and a long, persistent finish.
