Hard to read the code, but possibly disgorged 07/2021.
Beautiful nose of warm, moist brioche just out of the oven, membrillo and roasted hazelnuts. Dried apricot and membrillo on the palate as well as some oyster shell mineral/salinity in the finish. Absolutely delicious and what a bargain for that I paid for it! The extra 2.5 years post disgorement has undoubtedly helped this wine! 92

I have never liked this cuvee in the past, but this bottle is exceptional. Possibly procured in June 2021, this was absolutely fabulous with tuna ceviche prepared with lemon and capers. Ripe pit fruits and toast on the nose, with lemon curd, pickled apricot and a taut beam of laser-focused acidity on the mid palate. The finish is very long and impressively endowed with heavily salted lemon curd. Just fabulous. Such an anomaly. I have no idea if this is just a miracle bottle or if the additional bottle age has helped this immensely. 93
