Outstanding
Tasting note: Firm reduction renders the nose unreadable. Once again, the mouthfeel of the middle weight flavors is quite sleek with a beguiling texture and taut muscularity that carries over the stony, refreshing and sneaky long finish. While this attractively energetic effort displays good intensity, the overall impression is a wine of refinement and a certain delicacy though one that should also age well over the medium to longer-term. Lovely juice.
