Always complex, rich and toasty w notes of wood, citrus and spices. My sense is 10+ years would work magic on this wine so I’ll try to cellar the rest for a time.

Needed about 30 minutes to open. First glass was a bit tight and non de-script. But fear not, this wine blossomed and stretched its outstretched arms into a massive bear hug and loving embrace. Such glorious abundance.
What a treat. Can you tell I enjoyed it? As did the wife who has a very discerning palette especially when it comes to bubbles. In a great drinking window and may get smidge better over time but maybe not.
Balance has everything I look for with a great acid backbone to support long term aging and give it great lift. Bravo.

Has all the ingredients, but not ready by a decade.

Yeah this crushed it. Spectacular in every sense.
