Estimate
...clean and precise, stony, mineral-driven bouquet that is supremely well focused and seems full of energy and promise. The palate is very well balanced with fine acidity, plenty of concentration here...gently fanning out toward the finish with gorgeous orange zest and white peach notes lingering long on the aftertaste.
Lemon, pèche de vigne and a note of spicy oak on the nose, plus a sexy whiff of greenness... Vibrant mineral-driven acidity gives terrific definition to this very densely packed wine, with notes of spices, herbs and pepper contributing to the impression of cut...quite phenolic but it boasts outstanding energy and freshness for the vintage. Finishes firm and long, with palate-dusting white calcaire.
...attractive crisp edge that gives it a refreshing character, making a happy contrast to the rich fruits, the spice and the rounded texture...ripe and tangy wine...
...with a salty finish and plenty of baked apple fruit. Good oak integration giving hints of caramel on the finish.
