Alain Jaume (Grand Veneur), Lirac Clos du Sixte other_regions_italy Stefan Kraml met me well

Stefan Kraml met me well before eight o’clock on a mid-August morning with an air of quiet confidence and near nonchalance that tipped me off to what would follow

but its backbone suggests it will age well

There is a lovely sense of underlying tension to the mineral and saline-inflected flavors that culminate in a moderately austere but balanced and persistent finish

Broad and rich but also magically airy in the mouth

It is hard to believe this is a second wine with all that is going on here
