TASTING NOTE: Intense, lively aromas of lime zest, mineral oil, crunchy green apple and pear. It's a real lip-smacker on the palate, with plenty of minerality and a laser beam of crisp acidity. A great sipper, or pair with lake fish, shellfish, or green salads with grilled chicken. (VINTAGES panel, May 2016) |
