Touch of reduction and driving acid still. Maybe a year or two left as finish is hinting.

Lovely minerality, acidity and aromatics.
But it does feel a bit disjointed at the moment. Oak and alcohol are a tad too apparent for me, so hopefully this will integrate in due time.
For now, 91/100

This wine is deep lemon. The aromas and flavors are fresh and yet rich with notes of lemon curd, ripe yellow apple, pear, apricot, cantaloupe, buttercream, custard, flan, vanilla bean, and delicate blanched almond. Alcohol is on the high end of medium (13.5%). It has a full mouthfeel and weight without being overbearing and while maintaining balance.
