Description

Carftology 2018 drives home the point: weight and power are not the same thing. Here’s a wine with a moderate palate weight that has both intensity and power. The wine greets you warmly with the scent of ripe apples and citrus rind. A second whiff reveals something savoury, even nutty. The palate shows poise, suspended and still in the counterbalance of rushing elements - sweet saline and mineral. Very good persistence. Some richness but absolutely no puppy fat. Dry, cleansing finish.
