Drank with friends, no formal notes. From magnum. This is really on point right now out of the larger format, the great acid of the vintage shines through. Long and smooth without being heavy. Nice citrus and brioche notes. I'd wager this is at peak.

Bright yellow. Nose: stone fruit, Meyer lemon. Dandelion and rose. Crushed stone. Palate: Very smooth, medium viscosity. Medium-plus acidity, nicely balanced with honey sweetness. Meyer lemon, Starfruit and ruby Grapefruit represent the citrus notes. Brilliant honeysuckle and pineapple balances them nicely. Bit of parsley and limestone and apricot. Finish: very smooth, long-lasting glycerin mouthfeel. Overall a very nice wine. With very little detected oak, I think this is one of the better vintages of this bottling, which have a times been over-oaked for my tastes. They have allowed the good vintage to shine through.

Overall, I was not a big fan of this wine. Had this at a restaurant so I did not write a whole lot of notes. I remember it being extremely bitter. Not something that I particularly enjoyed. This is a quality white wine just not my style. All I got get from this is maybe some stone fruit and some honeysuckle?

Drinking well right now, harmonious and balanced. Melon and citrus-fruited, with some zip to it, alongside a mineral salt baseline.
