Aromas: Expect floral and fruity notes, including white peach, citrus (zesty lemon, lime, tangerine pith), fresh-cut herbs, and just-ripened yellow apple. Some vintages show additional complexity with crushed rocks, honey, mint, petrol, onion, or muscat-like hints reminiscent of hefeweizen.
Palate: The wine is round, medium-full, and smooth, with a fresh, mineral-driven character. Flavors include crunchy pear, saline verve, white peach, green fig, dried thyme, and medicinal white cherry. It has medium to medium-plus acidity, light to medium body, and a saline, sea-spray finish. Some tasters note herbal lees, salted almonds, hazelnuts, and a crystalline citrus lift.
