First Glance: Salty, Nutty, Complex, Long
The Wine:
Hay, curried straw liquor, lemon bitters, lemon tea cake punched into pumice. A praline touch. Sandy, yes - Albero smells and tastes, sapidity punching into cheek corners. Rolling wheat savoury, bitter tongue point finish and orange blossom rising. Yellowy smells with hints of orange, backfilled with aromatic bitters and a wash of bajamar blues. Salty and oceanic. Waxflower, salted pistachio hearts, and lots of the beach - sand and ozone. Delta-spreading, lean, long and noble. Long, easy, stunning running bitters and vertical tension. Delicious in the mouth, round, vertical, really pleasing. Steely blue base rises ozone to the sky. Bitters punch down into chalk, roll out to a sapid and bitter, sea-spray end, oceanic like having your mouth open while boating.
