The nose is expressive yet poised, offering layers of ripe citrus, white peach, orchard fruit, subtle floral notes, and a distinctive stony, saline minerality, with gentle hints of hazelnut and lees complexity as it opens.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is textured and generous, but always carried by tension and clarity.
