Community Tasting Notes (3) Avg Score: 97.6 points

  • Although still young, this was drinking so well, very complex and extremely precise but of course this has a lot of upside potential. I deduct some points as I would have wished for touch more acidity (but others at the table who are more sensitive to acidity found it perfect). 97 pts.

    TN: Very expressive, superbly delineated nose displaying layers, pears, white peach, fresh green apple, white flowers, Coche flint, strong slate minerality. On the palate the same layerdness and aromas just even more amplified with additional hints of herbs and even strawberry to all mentioned above. The oak is ever so slightly noticeable but it’s not too intrusive or distracting. Round and fresh, medium+ acidity, round and balanced and with very long and expanding finish.

    Decanting: Followed over three hours. Needed a time in the glass to open up, getting more intense and better by the minute. This would have needed a few hours in a decanter.

  • Ett helt underbart vin som har allt förutom mognad. Har nog aldrig druckit ett bättre ungt vitt vin. En otrolig fyllighet och kraft och samtidigt elegant och lätt. En otrolig balans och struktur med fyllig frukt, underbar syra och massor av mineral.
    Helt magiskt!!!

  • Amazing wine. Richness, depth yet weightless. Honeyed white fruits and stones. Finish is breath taking. Special. (97)
