Some reductive notes on the nose with just ripe stone fruits and tart fig. The palate is sitting more on the austere side at this point of its development and it will be interesting to see if fruit wins out over winemaker artefact, with the reductive characters on the nose making themselves known on the palate. There is focused white peach and an enjoyable mealy texture. One to look at a year or two from now.
