Initially the nose starts out woody, lemony, earth and sinewy but it integrates beautifully after 1.5 hours. It’s so mineral and there are hints of ocean breeze and a super saline element. River stones and citrus work their way in as does apple and pear. The nose once it gets going and man, does it get going, becomes impossibly complex. Just stunning. Speechless stunning. What great white burg is about. The palate is just a beast. Wow. It’s ultra concentrated and ultra refined at the same time. It just explodes initially and then it spreads and pumps acid, fruit and mineral for what seems like forever. A stunning Champ Gain. Wow is this a great wine. In 5-8 years this will make grown men cry
