Lapena 2011

"The 2010 Lapena is from a single parcel of 38-year-old north-facing Godello vines. It has a lifted nose of dried pineapple and a touch of quince that is supremely well defined and exhibits impressive mineralite and tension. The palate is very well-balanced on the entry that has touches of peach skin and nectarine, a hint of spice with continued aeration. It is reminiscent of a fine Provencal white as the aromatics open their arms. The palate is very well-balanced with a keen thread of acidity running through from start to finish: subtle notes of frangipane, white peach, dried apricot, white pepper and lemon curd. It is beautifully balanced with real persistency toward the harmonious, elegant finish. This is too good to spit out! Drink now-2017".
