Wow. Smells like wet limestone. Palate is all rocks.

Have not had since end of December 2018. Amazing nose. Honeysuckle, god level airiness and minerals. Brown sugar. Huge apricot. So precise. So clear. So precise. So layered. Like a Riesling drop. Lemon. It’s superbly complex. New nuances every minute. Honeycomb. Elite. Wow. This is so electric. Amazing purity, depth and finesse. Such elegance. Honeyed but so lithe and fresh. Drop dead. Juicy. So clean. Fruit is apricot and peach. But best ones you’ve ever had. Energy and minerality for days. Concentrated and sappy. Beautiful minerals and inner mouth florals. Superbly impressive structure and sap. A baby but finally coming out of it’s shell. Thrilling wine.

Huge fruit on the nose. Tropical, peach skin, mineral, limestone. Terrific richness and such lovely purity and balance. What clarity. So clean and lovely dissipating finish. Terrific inner mouth aromas. Terrific density and structure.
