Needs a good decanting but it’s nicely aged now.. there’s a wonderful bouquet of fresh apple, grape, and nectarine, with notes of candied ginger, white pepper, kerosene, and peach blossom. The palate starts out with juicy golden apple and grape, followed by white peach cream puffs, with notes of roasted mango and papaya that show as it warms, and hints of powdered ginger and oregano on a long lingering finish.

Weight freshness and lenght. Can't come from anything other than a grand cru or exceptional premier cru. As the temperature went up the alcohol level began to show more typical for the vintage
