Young, bright and with a dash of phenolic grip on the back end, this seemed fruit sweet when it was first opened, but after a couple of hours of air it brought out the minerality and tightened up the fruit. Peach skin, Rainier cherry and lemon zest pick up a dash of spearmint, and then are sucked into a vortex of rocks and acid. This needs five or ten years to unfold.
