($37) Light, bright gold. Restrained scents of green apple and pear skin unfurl with air, offering deeper melon and peach qualities. Tangy, sharply focused citrus and orchard fruit flavors stain the palate, picking up floral and herbal character with air. The finish is strikingly pure and bright and repeats the citrus and floral notes. This seems very young, and in need of a year or two to unwind.
