description: This older-vine vineyard a few miles from the ocean delivers a layered nose of steely minerality, chopped herbs (oregano, basil, thyme, even rosemary) and a poached apple background. The slightly watery palate seems to be hiding a bit, but patient searching reveals some of the herbals as well as light touches of toasted almond and lemon rind. This could emerge into a classic wine, but it's hard to tell now.
