Wasn't really expecting much out of this one, but it was a bit of an eye opener. Aging in a very similar way to a great Graves. This was clearly very oak forward in its youth, but the oak, while still prominent, has integrated and works well with the honeyed and nutty notes that predominate. Just beginning to turn golden with an acid backbone that can easily carry it out another ten years or so. Fun lunch wine.
