Nose: Complex and engaging, with yellow nectarine, lemon zest, kaffir lime leaf, clover honey and earthy minerality, with exotic hints of papaya and jasmine.
Palate: Medium weight with a satin-cream mouthfeel and pink grapefruit juiciness. Fine, linear acidity lends length and focus, with a lifted fennel spice and a finish of river-stone minerals.
