Light green yellow, silver reflections. Smoky, dark minerality, fine savouriness, fresh apple, needs some air, a hint of honeydew melon. Powerful, tightly woven, fresh white apple fruit, peppery spiciness, fresh structure, fine meadow herbs on the finish, salty minerality also on the finish, very good future potential.
