While rather muted on the nose while cold, this wine unfurls in the glass to reveal hints of stone fruit, white blossoms and a hint of apricot kernel. The palate shows a concentrated core of just-ripe conference pear, white nectarine, framed by a touch of apple-skin phenolic grip. A vein of fine acidity runs throughout, bringing freshness and a sense of poise and balance to this subtle and elegant wine.
