The nose is very true to the grape with its litchi and rosewater aromas, but these aromas are in a more restrained and elegant style than seems common for the grape. It is a strongly mineral rather than an explosively fruity scent. Fully dry palate, quite forceful even, deep, grippy and even earthy palate with surprisingly noticeable acidity for the grape. Long, mineral aftertaste. The power, dryness and elegance brought Alsace of the Trimbach style to my mind! Very nice.
