Revisiting this over two years later. Had it alongside the 2013.
The oily texture is somewhat less prominent, yet it is still on the dense side. The acidity is moderated, not stingy, rather reclined, but lingers notably. The fruit has come together more and is now a blend of ripe apples, syringa, elderflower and melon, with a touch of oak. High minerality and somewhat smoky finish.
Could last for a year or two more but can very well be had now.

Lots and lots of yellow apples, medium acidity, somewhat oily texture. Tasty, yet a bit unbalanced. Wil it come together over the coming years? Will keep remaining bottle for at least a year more.

Dry/off dry, high acidity, youthful. Lots of tropical fruit - peach, apricot, lemon, apples, mineral and a whiff of wet wool. Enjoyable now, but will continue to grow for many years.
