PNP. Flinty lemon infused nose with a hint of ginger. Deep palate, crisp and dry with chalky dry extract in abundance. Bitter lemon rind finish. Great and way too young.

Freshness but also pungency to the nose. This baby was too young, and while better after 1.5 hours of air time could have really several more years on in the bottle before being approached. 93-94+

Intense and vigorous. Nice mineral edge. Has yet to develop real nuance though.

Dave's 40th birthday. My most exclusive tasting ever!!! (@ Bottles; Sas van Gent, Netherlands): Youthful and beautiful, perfumed bouquet with smoke and good vanilla. Same on the palate, tropical fruits, good citrus and luxurious oak. Although still much too young, a beautiful, delicious, complex and very great wine.

2016 Villa d’Este Wine Symposium - Kelly, Alan and Kevin's excellent adventure; 11/3/2016-11/12/2016 (Villa D’este, Lake Como, Piedmont, Milan and Frankfurt): Expressive nose displaying ripe and dense yellow and white fruit, lemon oil, pear, fresh apple, a hint of Coche flint, sesame, saline and mineral. Excellent concentration, beautifully layered, cool ripe white fruit driven palate impression, dense and deeply toned, bright acidity and strong mineral presence and a long mineral driven finish. The overall expression is similar to the village Meursault but displaying greater precision and complexity. Excellent showing.
