Visual: Pours a brilliant, luminous straw yellow with delicate, shifting pale-gold highlights and absolute clarity.

Aromatic Bouquet: The nose is highly sophisticated and tightly coiled, gradually opening with precise, chiseled aromas of white peach, tart green apple, and pink grapefruit. Complex secondary layers reveal wild Mediterranean brush, rosemary, orange blossom, and a prominent, smoky, crushed-flint minerality.

Palate Structure: On the palate, the wine is vertical, tense, and structurally driven. It strikes with an immediate wave of razor-sharp, vibrant acidity that effortlessly carries a medium-bodied weight. The mid-palate transitions into an intense, saline-driven sapidity—a direct reflection of its unique terroir—culminating in a long, dry, and exceptionally clean finish.
