Pale lemon-yellow. Distinctly cyanic aromas of apricot pit, quince and menthol. Juicy, spicy and slightly dry-edged, with a penetrating quality to the slightly tart lemon flavor. This very youthful wine finishes with an almost tannic impression. Neither this nor the 2012 version went through malolactic fermentation and both were made in stainless steel tanks. 88+? points
