Allen Meadows - Score: 92-95 (2019 June)

This is compositionally similar to the Tesson with the addition of wet stone nuances. The palate impression though is both finer and tighter with much more mineral influence that is almost pungent on the cuts-like-a-knife detailed flavors that are sleek, racy and super-saline-inflected on the very dry and markedly firm finale that is overtly austere. This is unapologetically built to age and a wine that is going to need it. In a word, impressive.
