A lot lighter on its feet than the 2012. Acid, less barrel, less ML. Won't rate, since I sell it...

V13. Delicious. All the right attributes, balanced and not over the top. Toasty bouquet. Buttery pear and very slight Meyer lemon fruit. Creamy, mineral finish. Good job!

V13. Really like this one. Butterscotch bouquet. Depending on the temperature, buttery, creamy pear fruit. Well balanced.
