Underrated / Over delivers. Beautiful and harmonious, an interesting thing this wine brought up is how few 2005 vintage bottlings I've come across...

2004: Lively lemon lime on entry. Later, a hint of pithy wood. Low dosage of 1.5gr. Broad on the palate after the initial flash of acidity. Still climbing the ladder.
