"Smells of jasmine tea, to begin with. Silver-tip tea and peaches. Something somehow silvery about this wine: the tang of an old pewter tine, the gleam of an old sugar spoon. Green peppercorns and purslane. Green walnuts. Very unusual. Linear horizontal bitterness forms a spine and defines the finish. (TC)"
