"A flavorful and charming white with notes of cooked lemons, yellow plums, flower honey, flint, wet stones, white flowers and a touch of spice. Medium body with a core of ripe lemons and yellow fruit at the center and a svelte texture. Bright acidity gives energy to the mid-palate. Seductive and well-composed. Honeyed, mineral long finish with a zesty kick. Drink now."
