Pale straw-yellow. Very pretty fresh gooseberry aroma is further enlivened by notes of white flowers and citrus fruit. Enters fresh and compact, with a noticeable salty streak to its floral and citrus flavors. The long finish features an intense stony quality and fleshes out nicely with air. This wine is almost always quite austere when tasted young and easily underestimated at the outset. But it invariably improves with time and peaks around ten years after the vintage.
