  Nose: mango, white flower, caramel, banoffee, mangosteen, mushroom, creme brulee, red date, vanilla cake
  Notes: Unfortunately it's difficult to have access to this kind of wines on a regular basis, this wine is absolutely delicious and showing plenty of flavors. This wine does feel younger than its actual age. Still plenty of fresh tropical fruits around and the infusion with white flowers is simply incredible. Quite youthful still but clearly this is quite ready to drink, the nose is quite sweet yet the palate has excellent acidity to it. I would consider this one of the top whites I've had in my life. Nevertheless, the only thing I can complain about this is probably the fact that the wine died down quite quickly after 1.5 hours, I would say that at least a point or two has been deducted from the score due to this unfortunate situation.

  Much darker profile than the 96 but immediately attacks your senses when opened. No decanting needed. Fresh and lively. Bit denser than the 96 and less fresh. But I'd drink up as it starts to fall after 30mins - 1hr. But enjoyed it for the first 30mins a lot.

  CC. Peach gold color, quite advanced. Mellow, sweet melon aromatics. Some caramel notes on very sweet palate. (499/3535)

  Golden hued, with nothing out of place. Beautiful, elegant nose with whiteflowers and a complexity that was riveting. Everything in perfect balance. A friend used the word 'spiritual experience' and I would agree.
