Very Botrytisy, and bone dry. Strange but compelling wines

Pomelo, gooseberries, bitter almond tree flowers, gardenias, white grape stems, petrol, oyster shells, soy milk. Rounded acidity, medium bodied, creamy texture, incredibly mineral driven, long citrus pulp/floral/slightly tangy finish. Sake-like in texture and finish. This is ideal for pescatarians.

Muscat-like aromatic nose (fresh exotic fresh flowers) equalled by lots of minerality. Smooth and light body, substantial mid palate, fanned out but still sticky finish
