This wine is captivating with its concentration and purity, delivering ethereal layers of ripe citrus that haunt the senses. The palate is refined with a finesse of ripe citrus, orange skin, fresh peach that grow long on this finish. A beautiful snapshot of the 2020 vintage, perfectly captured in time.

Tasting notes
This wine has aromas of mayflower, acacia and honeysuckle, with verbena, hazelnut and toast. It has a profound flinty minerality, with a persistent finish.
