The nose has notes of green peppers, a wet minerality like being in a limestone cave, and smoldering campfire ash after a light rain. Warm, slightly oily mouthfeel. The palate has an excellent earthy sweetness, with green peppers, heavily charred marshmallows, bay leaves, black pepper, faint orange peel and lime zest, and a gentle smokiness. The finish is long and mineraly, with lingering black pepper, citrus and a wisp of smoke. Overall, this is incredibly light and refreshing. I could see this becoming a nightly sipper, especially on hot summer nights (or afternoons).
