Bright, pale straw.
Clean, high intensity, lime, tangerine, nectarines, mineral and pure.
Dry with some residual sugar, lending a rich profile, well offset by the high acidity, yet svelte and crunchy, yellow beetroot kind of earthiness, long and sandy mineral core, matchstick, flint, integral, broad, juicy with supportive oaking, spicy, linear, moderate alcohol of 13.2% abv.
