Pale in appearance, this wine looks like fresh straw. The nose is clean and fragrant, with hints of candied ginger and crisp yellow pear. The palate is lively, with considerable juiciness reined in by dramatically lively acidity. The structure combines with the wine’s dry style to feel lightly astringent on the palate. There’s loads of lovely nuance that surfaces as the wine warms and evolves in the glass. Best through 2016.
