Bright straw. Lime and lemongrass on the high-pitched nose, with deeper notes of quince and pear skin coming up with air. Dry and taut, with very good depth and clarity to its citrus and dried pear flavors. Gains flesh and sweetness with air, picking up a melon nuance and finishing with very good energy and cut. This would be great with light fish dishes or young goat cheeses.
