2022 Stratus White

First impressions of lemon thyme, candied pear, lemon blossom, freesia, and sage. Dry, medium body with good attach of lemony acid. A nice creaminess here but still quite juicy and tight at this point. Lots of grapefruit pith, wet stone, and baked pie crust in the medium finish. Beautifully balanced with good concentration. Youthful and maybe a little shy. Need aeration if consuming immediately. Will benefit from 2-3 years to further develop and relax.

Day Two – Nose now offering melted paraffin, lemon zest, white pepper, clover honey, wet stone and honeycomb aromas. Medium body and more mouth-coating. Acid has softened by still vibrant. Longer finish with honeycomb, salty rocks and subtle leesy pie crust flavours.
