Gorgeous minerality with rich dried apricot and floral tones on the nose. Expanding on the palate with ripe fruit, balanced acidity and streak of palate coating minerals. Bueatiful.

The 2010 is quite stunning, crisp pear and ginger notes, dense core and bit of mineral tang and great length.

Spectacular. Hints of honey with lemon. Just an awesome bottle. Props to @Todd Abrams who accepted the challenges of finding a 16 year old bottle to match my daughters 16th birthday. You are the man!!

Kind of a baby killer for drinking this but was awesome. Lemon rind and butter on the very intense nose. Lovely oak on the long finish that had tension between the acidity and minerality! A lovely white burg. 2013 vintage. Love niellon!
