Initially reductive notes of scorched earth and smoke in this wine dissipate with aeration, revealing pristine yellow apple and Mirabelle. Edged by a crush of oyster shells and salty mineral tones, this invigorating sip finishes on a whisper of white pepper. The wine is just starting to open now but should drink well through 2030.
Pungently expressive aromas of green fruit, lemon-lime, seashore and iodine precede powerful and solidly concentrated medium weight flavors that exude a bracing salinity on the sneaky long finale. This isn't refined (Vau de Vey rarely is) but there's plenty of character here.
