  Always a great wine from a great vineyard. A bit more evolved than expected and from a warm vintage. Full and ripe, with a bit of botrytis. Aroma’s of elderflower, ripe yellow pear, overripe yellow apple, honey, mango, cantaloup melon, pineapple and only a hint of petrol. High acidity
  Very long finish

  Yellow stone fruit, apple, lemon, papaya, herbs, dusty flint, well-balanced acidity. The palate is rich and the finish long. It's drinking beautifully now, and there's plenty of gas left in its tank.

  Young, but surprisingly accessible. Aromas of white peach, tangerine, nectarine, slate and white tea leaf. Full bodied with round, thick and juicy acid that leaves a small tingling sensation. Seems to be a touch of residual sugar adding weight to the body as well. The structure is substantial, a just a bit weighty, suggesting a long life ahead. Flavors include yellow peach, nectarine, red plum, lime zest, orchid and lemon pith. This has a minerality deficit at the moment, though I imagine another five to ten years of aging will address this. Good now, good upside.
