Light gold color. Subdued nose. Minerals, pear, buttered almond and apricot. Medium bodied, medium-Med plus acidity. Everything dances around those minerals on the palate. Might benefit from a couple more years in bottle. Very nice.

Should have decanted. Strong colour; develops on the glass & eventually provides a (text book) bouquet of real interest. Judiciously oaked, with air deepens into a spicy BB, retain a fresh feel. But, the initial dilute feel, to the finish, is never overcome.

Lack of acidity and mineral hint, plain and faint aroma. Skip next time no matter how seductive its price is.

Others have described it well enough. For us though, good but un-memorable.
