sehill Likes this wine: 92 points
April 10, 2010 - Decanted and poured this wine is showing well from the beginning. The wine retains a lot of youthful energy with the aromatics displaying citrus zest, floral, sea shell, mineral, slate, chalk and subtle white truffle notes. The color is a light yellow that appears youthful. The color at this point is lighter than expected. The medium bodied palate shows chalk, slate, minerals and acidity on a medium length finish where the acidity lingers. This remains youthful and shows outstanding balance. This wine drinks well now and may even benefit from a couple more years of bottle age.
