Description

From the Full Moon vineyard in Gladysdale. The project of Steve Flamsteed (Giant Steps) and Dave Mackintosh (ArFion).

Salo always tastes like Salo, which is as it should be, though vintages obviously shape the outcome. This is kind of thick and fleshy but with a firm core of enlivening acidity. It tastes of pie apple with a savoury edge of roast chicken and toasted hazelnuts, ripe lime acidity, fine chalk dust texture, and again that almost creamy oatmeal and an umami sake thing on a long and juicy citrus finish of precision and grip. Very excellent. 95 Points - Gary Walsh, The Wine Front
