"There is a vaguely exotic quality to the very fresh aromas of white peach, citrus zest, floral and soft spice wisps. There is equally good freshness to the markedly racy medium-bodied flavors that display a subtle touch of minerality as well as a hint of salinity that adds lift to the almost painfully intense, well-balanced, complex and persistent finish. This is presently linear and compact but possesses excellent potential."
