English term or phrase: A tight earthy minerality
2009 Blanc de Pinot Noir
Juice from the highest quality Pinot Noir grapes were given two nights skin contact to produce the petal red/pink colour. Aromas of wild strawberry, rhubarb and quince paste mingle with a tight earthy minerality. The palate is concentrated with fresh Pinot Noir fleshiness tapering to a superbly linear finish. Light, yet flavour packed, its dry finish makes it an effortless, breezy drinking pleasure.

Explanation:
TIGHT: Describes a wine's structure, concentration and body, as in a "tightly wound" wine. Closed or compact are similar terms.
http://en.mimi.hu/wine/tight.html

Earthy: A wine tasting term. It means just what it sounds like, a slight taste of soil. The French use a term "gout de terroir" that is often used to mean the same thing; although it can also mean that the wine has typical tastes for the region.
http://en.mimi.hu/wine/earthy.html

Mineral, Minerality:
Tasting term referring to wines with mineral characteristics referring to their soil (terroir) such as clay, iron, slate, and stone flavours.
