Opened and it was a bit tight and not very giving. Put it straight into decanter and after 2 to 3 hours it has gained weight and complexity. Good concentration and developing minerality. Very nice nose with some peach and orange, with quince as well on the palate. That part is a little surprising for a 2014; I associate the more tropical notes with warmer vintages. Nonetheless very nice. Very drinkable; would definitely recommend decanting this wine.

Pineapple bursts from the glass adding citrus on the palate with browned butter and shortbread continuing through the long finish. Perhaps it’s missing a bit of power and freshness for balance, but otherwise it’s lovely. Drink up.

Drikker bra - satt glimrende til sjøkrepsspaghetti, mindre bra til ganske ydmykende runder med «Idiot» - moden sitron, vanilje, trøffel og smør.

Beautiful in everyday. Drank with crab risotto.
Lemon curd, baked apple, honey suckle. Well balanced acidity. I think that the next bottle will sit for 5+ more years.
