  Nose is a bit overoaked. 100 % new oak barrels on these cuvees is perhaps a bit much. Needs air. Waiting a bit. After an hour or two, the wine still shows too much oak. The mouthfeel also gives me too much unbalanced one track mind acidity. A strange animal. Combination of vintage and oak does not work for me. Had some real expectations to this wine and it disappoints.
