The reduction is right on the edge of off-putting, but after a minute in the glass, the winemaker’s intention becomes clear. Aromas of grilled lemons, struck match, crushed stones and sea salt. The midweight palate has a generous texture and a bright line of acidity that finishes with a phenolic edge. Not for everyone, but interesting. Drink or hold.

A firm style, with a taut mix of lemon sorbet, pear and white peach flavors, plus candied ginger, nutmeg and graham cracker, all on a sleek and mouthwatering frame. Hints of dried apricot, crunchy sea salt and orange blossoms emerge on the finish. Drink now. 1,712 cases made.

Spiced and baked tropical fruits fill the mouth with flavor, carrying through a persistent finish.
