The hue is a pale and refined straw green. The nose shows fine-drawn expression of perfectly ripe pit fruit, floral, citrus and lightly spiced aromas. In the palate, we taste a very well judged balance of grass and minerality. The freshness is always present in a focused package. Terrific length and definition.

From the winemaker:

"The aromatics are exotic and the palate possesses minerality with a burgeoning richness. Youthful and pale green in color, the flavors are complex, revealing floral, pear, and lemon notes. A lovely mineral core and crystallized fruit, with a long, energetic finish. Very enjoyable now but will age gracefully for at least a decade."

Pair with roast chicken, grilled salmon, and risotto with wild mushrooms.
