Wondrously crystalline, pure, energetic and shimmering – and all in a way immediately apparent from the aromatics, you don’t even need to put it in your mouth. But that would be a shame, a great shame! Bitingly fresh on the palate with an intense and vivid clarity that shouts ‘altitude’ – you can almost feel the cool nights in the sapid, juicy core of this wine. Mandarin zest, lime, linden, wild floral honey, lemon thyme and a hint of green tea – and something a little more exotic too, perhaps star fruit. I love the zesty fresh citrus notes that gather on the finish. I’d say this were quaffable, but it’s simply too vibrant and fresh for that.
