  What a wine! Rich and full palate with long finish. slightly oxidated, amontillado like. Good acidity for (many) more years to come.
  
  On the first day, it was still closed. Open and blossoming on the third day. Don't serve this cold. Ca. 14 degrees C will do. Still delicious on day 4.

  Rich gold towards amber color; magnificent nose of orange peel, marzipan, and almond; palate is full, apricot, manzanilla sherry-ish and citrus notes; acidity shows still some years ahead. This reflects a masterful use of the blend, clearly some extended skin contact to present a wine that is multifaceted and unique.

  Toujours aussi beau ce vin, à privilégier l'été avec cuisine de saison !
