Struck matches on the nose; the wine has a fantastic tension between precise laser-like lime acidity and rich, almost exotic peach fruits. Very concentrated, well-balanced with great length. The oak is there but, in the background, the acidity fresh and integrated. Drink now or keep a decade or more.
