There is just one barrel of this gem. Made from grapes grown on naturally low yielding, 22 year old vines, this wine has tension and complexity, with white peach, finger lime, toasted brioche and white floral aromatics complementing a focused palate. Fine phenolic texture and minerally acidity add depth and length respectively. It has incredibly good length and drive, defined by the salinity from the ocean. The oak is well integrated and elegant, while supporting the structure of the wine. This wine has real presence, and is built to age.
