Sunday, May 9, 2010 - Popped and poured through an aerator. This is aromatically fantastic: apricot, grapefruit, lemon, vanilla. All of that's on the palate, where the subtle oak ads a marshmellowy, almost custard-like aspect to the lengthy finish. Still quite youthful, without much secondary character, although all the flavors are well integrated at this point. Very big, fat wine, too, with great acidity to match. It will certainly drink well for much longer, but I suspect it's at its apex, at least as far as my palate goes. 92.
