"From a parcel measuring 0.43 ha. Here too a discreet touch of wood sets off pretty and cool aromas of citrus rind, dried floral nuances and a hint of green apple. There is good richness and verve to the well-detailed and intensely stony middle weight flavors that possess a sappy mouth feel on the palate coating and bone dry finish that is both admirably complex and highly persistent. Excellent."
