this wine from a historic vineyard is hard to put down. it combines flint, pencil lead, smoked wood, chopped chives, sweet onion, crushed limestone and a touch of white pepper on the stonefruit-based nose. a strong toast and brioche character carries the sip, touching on white sesame, graphite and even shaved parmesan. it's savory, tangy and addictive.
