A bit weightier than my last bottle, big rich stone fruits, especially nectarine, melon, bramble, herbs on the nose. Palate is similar, a bit less refreshing than before, but a better compliment to meaty white fish. This is evolving, but I expect more than a year or so and it will become flabby. Nicely different and has character all the same.

A big whiff of quince, melon, citrus and blossom, with a background of herbs. Palate is a refreshing mix of rich and zippy fruits, and a good kick of herbaceousness balanced by mineraliy. Probably not much longevity. Superb quality for quaffing, very good with food as well though. Have one bottle with a seafood picnic in the park and bring an extra bottle to enjoy on its own.
