Saturday, February 9, 2019 - PNP into Zalto Burgundy glass (“Leaf” day): Pale golden to the eyes.
Hints of reduction upfront. Nice concentration on the fruits with stone fruits like nectarine and ripe citrus fruits like bitter lemons, mandarin peels, some mints and spices too.
Nicely gentle and elegant on palate with great acidity and minerality. Some hints of mandarin peels and sweet-bitterness to the finish. Very consistent notes from nose to palate.
92-93 points to me.
1 hour upon opening: Towards the middle of the bottle more fruit flavours emerged and the elements are coming together nicely. Upgrade to 93 points.
