"Pale yellow. High-pitched scents of lemon and crushed stone. Intense and highly perfumed, showing excellent precision to its flavors of citrus peel, spices and minerals. Some unabsorbed CO2 adds to the wine's juicy character. Not a thick wine but sharply chiseled, aromatic and long on the aftertaste; this really piques the salivary glands."
