Really opened up after 2 hours in decanter. Expressive yellow flowers on the nose and racy acidity on the palate. Really great wine.

At peak, for my palate. Nothing to add to my last note (see Cellartracker). Stunning.

My best bottle so far, with none of the oxidation present in some previous bottles. On the nose: soft lemon, honey, a touch of oatmeal. On the palate: fantastic acidity, lemon and apple, honey with a distinc mineral core, and a soft smoky character. Fantastic showing.

2006 Vintage served Nov 2015. Critics panned this wine. Turned out to be considerably better served at the right temp - not too cool.

A little tired and funky at the beginning and started to show. Wasn’t much more forthcoming...

By the end of the bottle it tasted like apple juice. Maybe oxidized.
