Medium lemon colored with a deceptively high viscosity (12% ABV). The nose has medium (+) intensity aromas of white blossom, lemon zest, lime zest, tangerine, honeysuckle, Meyer lemon, grapefruit pith and cheese curd. The palate is slightly off-dry with high acidity and a medium (-) body. The tartness of the wine sharpens the citrus notes that now dominate. The florals, which were quite lopsided on the nose now play second fiddle. This is turning into a food wine for sure, it needs seafood to balance it out. Delicious, en pointe and very zesty it has medium length finish. I paid $18 for this bottle that gets 91 points from me and 5 stars. Made from Hondarrabi Zuri grapes. Drink this delicious drop till 2025. Salut….
