Lovely, highly aromatic nose of lemon/lime citrus, apple, mineral, and herbal aromas with a touch of reductive notes rise out of the glass. The crunchy, medium-full bodied palate offers very nice lemon/lime citrus with some petrol, mineral, and tart citrus flavours adding interest in an off-dry profile. Tart acidity freshens the palate. Minerally with some sweetness on the long, balanced finish. Tasted May 2023
