Aromatics: sharp, clean scents of lime peel, grapefruit blossom, and fennel bulb, accented by wet stones. Other sources note elderflower, verbena, and tropical hints like peach and gooseberry. Palate: the wine is full of zesty grapefruit and crisp pear flavors. It is noted for its "bristling energy" and "formula one" agility on the palate. Finish: It typically concludes with a long, chalky, or flinty mineral finish. Best Pairings: Ideal for fresh seafood (oysters, grilled fish), goat cheese, and salads.
