The nose is an intricate tapestry of ripe stone fruits—peach and apricot—interwoven with nuances of lemon zest and a whisper of honeysuckle. On the palate, this wine reveals a harmonious balance between its creamy texture and a precise, mineral-driven acidity, reminiscent of wet stones. Subtle oak integration adds layers of vanilla and a touch of spice, leading to a lingering, elegant finish.
