2021 Grace Koshu Toriibira Vineyard
Brilliant water like colour with a faint greenish tinge to the edges. Pronounced scents of pear and lime intermingle with green apple, infusions of fresh herbs and stony mineral notes. Refreshing lime, green pear and Granny Smith apple fruits have a light energetic feel across the palate with notions of wet stone, infusions of fresh herbs and minerals lining the back half. Crisp acidity with a dry, frisky finish.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
Alc. 12%
Other Reviews....
There’s just a fraction more ripeness to the 2021 vintage over 2020.
Lightly peppery, fennel, white peach, nori. Soft, a little more juiciness to flavour, fine peppery and chalky feel, cool crunch on a long clean finish. Fresh, but flavoursome (albeit in the subdued Grace style). Lovely. Drink 2022-2028.
