Very perfumed on the nose with intense pear notes which carry onto the palate. Also some butter and rum raisin notes with juicy acidity. Very long on the palate for the varietal with a contrast of sweet honey and salty minerality. It finishes with racy zippiness.

“The nose of this wine hints shyly at lemon freshness, while the palate brings fresh pear and lemon-zest purity. The finish is dry, bright, juicy and enlivening.”
