Yellow clear color. The nose shows immediate and obvious flinty/smoky aromas. It is actually quite intense at this early stage and the volcanic influence is unmistakable. The palate demonstrate how elegant a wine can be if harvested a very low yield, yet still carrying obvious ripeness elements, like a small roundness on the middle palate. The acidity, noble bitterness and strong mineral character make the finish drier than expected. This wine is showing very well at this early stage and should definitely age well.
