"Searing acidity flows behind the notes of glazed pear, fig and quince, with hints of blanched almond echoing. Silky in texture, with a savory mineral crunch, this gets a bit tight midpalate, but the acidity takes over and keeps this going on the long, spice-infused finish. Could work now with the right food, but better to wait a bit. Best from 2022 through 2032."
