Light golden in colour but not advanced. Slightly exotic, with salty honeycomb tainted by traces of TCA. Taint only increases with time in the glass. From my previous notes the incidence of TCA taint is statistically high with this wine.

Recent bottles of this have been tight and/or slight TCA like influenced. Not this one. Tight like a CC but lots of power. Better after a decant and better again day 2. These may have been through a "dull" patch and now emerging? Leave for a year before revisiting.

Pale gold. Nose is lemon pith, white stone fruits, sea spray and smokey oak. Palate needs air and then it's all Chablis with a long finish of tangy salted honey. Beautiful wine aging gracefully. Even better on day 2. Don't serve too cold.
