Coal Harbour Ayala Moriel 2016

Really interesting, unique, and compelling formulation that is very evocative of a fragrant shoreline at low tide. Reedy, salty, marshy notes mix with medicinal resins (elemi), piney-balsamic notes, and herbal/incense/labdanum notes (sage, or something giving the impression of sage stands out to me). At the same time, there are also competing bitter green notes and softer, sweeter floral nuances. A lot going on, but it blends and projects beautifully throughout its evolution.
