"The deep, pure and utterly refined nose offers up scents of apple, pear, orange peel, a very complex base of minerality, a nice touch of spice tones and a gently smoky topnote. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, complex and beautifully balanced, with a rock solid core, superb focus and grip, elegant mousse and a very long, snappy and mineral-driven finish."
