(four months in barrel, none new, then moved into concrete): Medium green-tinged yellow. Quince, ginger, white pepper and a whiff of stone fruits on the nose, along with a bit of toasty reduction. Quite rich in the mouth but dry and classic, with subtle notes of fruits, minerals and honey. This very brisk, closed wine is clenched today yet dusts the entire palate on the fine-grained, long finish. Give this at least a few more years in bottle to expand and express itself.
