I have set the correct font-size, so why isn't my code passing?

I really can't see what's wrong with this. Already checked out a lot of other forum posts where people have forgotten a curly bracket, but that's not the error message I'm getting: it says that I didn't specify the font-size for .title, which I did.

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

@media (max-width: 1020px) {
  .main-header {
    background-color: tomato;
    color: white;
    {
}

@media (max-width: 768px) {
    .title {
        font-size : 1.4rem;
    }
    h1 {
        font-size : 5rem;
    }
}
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lake Tahoe</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
  </head>
  <body> 
    <header id="top" class="main-header">
      <span class="title">Journey Through the Sierra Nevada Mountains</span>
      <h1 class="main-heading">Lake Tahoe, California</h1>
    </header>

        <div class="primary-content">
            <p class="intro">
                Lake Tahoe is one of the most breathtaking attractions located in California. It's home to a number of ski resorts, summer outdoor recreation, and tourist attractions. Snow and skiing are a significant part of the area's reputation.

        </div><!-- End .primary-content -->

The only problem I can see is that in first media-query after you set the text color to be white, instead of closing curly bracket you put an opening curly bracket. Try to fix that, maybe will work.
