| Notes | "The nose is smoky and spicy, like lemon drizzled over grilled chicken, with bright herbal notes of saffron and tarragon providing levity. A citrusy saltiness defines the palate, while a continued herbaceousness provides warmth without sacrificing the freshness." (Wine Enthusiast) "The wine has a pale yellow color, with bright greenish tints. The nose is intense and delicate with hints of apple. The palate is dry and mineral with pleasant acidity and salinity, persistent and harmonious." (Winemaker's Notes) | |||
