Golden yellow with a tinge of green.  Pronounced tears. Initially restrained aroma, but opens with notes of grapefruit and herbal tea. Dense with a creamy mouthfeel and notes of quince jelly and lemon zest. The yarrow tone is underscored more by the minerality than the fruit. Extract sweetness with balanced acidity, a creamy texture and a fine mineral bitterness on the finish. Calm yet demanding. Best in a large glass to express the fundamental minerality. (tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)
