"Here too Morey is one of only four owners though his tiny parcel measures only 0.0705 ha. An attractive touch of mineral reduction adds breadth to the highly complex aromas of citrus peel, lavender and spiced tea to shine. There is plenty of minerality present on the succulent, mouth coating and once again, extract-rich flavors that possess an attractive sense of underlying tension, all wrapped in a driving and strikingly lengthy if mildly austere finish. This is so stony that it's like rolling pebbles around in your mouth though note well that the very firm acid spine makes it clear patience will definitely be required. This too is excellent."
