Barrel fermented and matured for 10 months in 15% new French oak, plus four months in stainless steel, it’s reminiscent of Chablis and boasts exceptionally pure aromas. It opens with flint and petrichor before blossoming to apricot, elderflower liqueur, lime peel and hazelnuts. The palate is vibrant and silky with understated layers of creamy, peachy fruit, and its linear acidity and flinty tones come together for a shimmery finish. For several days after it's opened, the Maresh Vineyard becomes more and more expressive, pointing to a long life in the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 pts. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDusty nose of gunpowder, chamomile and dried citrus peel on a bed of white peaches and pears.

This is silky-smooth with notes of yellow apple and salty mineral tones, all enriched by an air of custard. Hints of hazelnut resonate over a coating of tactile minerals and fine tannins as a bump of residual acidity maintains freshness.
