Tasting Notes
NoseA harmonious blend of sour and dusty notes, reminiscent of a Tuscan landscape under bright, warm California sun, with a subtle complexity reflecting the vineyard's limestone and shell composition.
PalateDistinctly European flair — a fine balance of sour notes and bright fruit, herbaceous undertones and zesty citrus, with Slavonian oak lending depth and a hint of smokiness; a texture balancing silkiness with vibrant acidity into a long, complex finish.
