Similar to previous notes Upon opening, there was a lot of cedar on the nose As the wine opened up, the oak notes receded into the background and the notes were of salted nuts and ripe lemon peel. Some savoury notes were beginning to show Very good concentration and length This is good to cellar for a few more years, but is drinking very well now

Probably just past its peak Aromas of cedar, bruised yellow apples, and burnt citrus peel. With some air and as wine warmed in the glass, got some sated nuts Palate is more fresh, with salinity and lemon Excellent length Drink up

Bottle 3 of 6 Noticeably more evolved than previous bottles, despite only a few extra months having passed Aromas of lightly buttered popcorn and dried yellow fruits More fruit on the palate than the nose — yellow apples and dried lemon peel Mushroom notes on nose and palate Silky mid-weight texture This is drinking great right now Outstanding length

Bottles 1 and 2 of 6 — drunk one month apart. Same note for both
Benefited from some aeration
Persistent and pronounced citrus and yellow apples + minerality. Salted nuts and butterscotch Gorgeous texture, like light milk Some steeliness/metallic tastes on the palate. Nervy, electric, chiselled palate Round-the-mouth acidity Excellent to outstanding length of citrus and steel
The fruits feel like they are beginning to fade so this wine is probably entering or in its prime now now

Great concentration. A fair amount of oak detected — cedar, in particular.
Aromas of unbuttered popcorn, butterscotch, and ripe citrus
