Dinner with a friend, brief notes this evening.

Under-ripe peach, orange rind, candle wax, beautiful.

48 Hour Update:
Nose has sliced peach (cold), crushed apricot, orange rind and candle wax.
Palate has waxy yellow apple (baked), orange zest, under-ripe peach, somewhat savory wine with medium acidity and finish. Likely will evolve to a fine bottle in a few years time.

Mineral taste, crisp, pairs well with anything.
