The wine has clearly changed - we are still getting a lot of tropical fruit - pineapple, passion fruit - and grape - we are however not really getting petroleum this time - the wine wine has always had residual - but is becoming more pronounced this time. We are not getting any ripped apple this time - still clearly honey. Still a nice long aftertaste -but the sweetness is becoming more dominant here also. We still like the wine a lot - but fell that the the wine has lost a bit of its freshness and therefore we are lowering our rating to very solid 92.

happy to stay at well deserved 93 the wine is drinking well - comes across as very elegant and refreshing - we are getting petroleum and tropical fruit (pineapple). We are also getting ripped apple and clearly some grape - especially toward the end - where you get a nice long aftertaste. Nice minerality and we also get some honey.

Ripe, round, but relatively neutral in its white fruits, lacks grip. Disappointing for what it should be/is. Cellared since original release.
