Outstanding at age 19. Not much trace of aging. Minerals and saline - intact. Clear fruit. Just a little sea salt caramel in the nose shows the real age

My 50th at the Ledbury (The Ledbury, London): Pale to mid straw. Saline, densely mineral nose. Grippy attack, real bite and intensity through the mid palate. Lime fruit, some oyster shell, GC weight and intensity but balanced with a lightness, elegance and laser-like precision. *****

2004 Piedmont Theme dinner at Solo Ristorante. Drank in Gabriel Standart. Went from borderline oxidative to fully oxidized by the end of dinner. Appearance is clear, pale intensity, yellow lemon going gold colour. Legs. Nose medium+ intensity, with aromas of orange peel and tangerine, borderline oxidation extending into caramel with more air. Developed. On the palate, dry, medium+ acidity, medium alcohol (135), medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with flavours of honeyd nut, bruised green apple, oxidative caramel increasing, orange peel, brioche. Medium+ finish. Apparently there have been better bottles of this. I would advise taking the risk. Drink up whatever there is.

Pronounced nose intensity with notes of flora, apple, bottle toast. High acidity.
