A stoniness underscores the lemon, citronella and clove flavors in this racy white. The chalky texture and light tannins on the finish set this apart. This keeps building, ending with fine energy and a lingering aftertaste.

Once again the reduction is sufficiently prominent on the judiciously wooded nose to warrant decanting this 30 minutes in advance if you choose not to age this excellent effort. Otherwise there is terrific intensity, power and density to the broad-shouldered and intensely mineral-driven flavors that also coat the palate with dry extract that also serves to buffer the firm acid spine on the saline, balanced and moderately austere finish. Patience.
