Tasting Notes
Brilliant straw yellow colour. Very technical and rather simple fruit in the first few minutes, but with a hint of savouriness. After 20 minutes, the bouquet opens up very slowly and promises enormous depth. Spicy notes of rosemary, earth and ivy, a light hint of lime, the finest Riesling fruit, fine raisins. Tightening and biting on the palate, with zesty limey freshness and demanding acidity, dense, powerful and very complex. A sleeping giant that we will only first awake in four to five, but certainly in eight and ten years.
