  Good again, a bit more than one year later. Much the same profile, moderate rich and full, none of the 'lemon custard' (was it really there!) but that softness is still notable, almost a bit of light honey bended with the citrus, just a bit more than a caress of a finish in the layering of the acid and fruit. Drank before dinner over four nights, enjoyable throughout.

  Drank over couple of nights. Initially a bit shy on nose and palate, light lime, lemon, lemon custard (as in a richness & softness in the lemon), light chalk, hints of pear, white flowers. Moderate full body with good length. Not your edgy GV and with a depth and concentration that is fine, especially interesting texture that complements the slight roundness to the fruit/citrus. Delicious and interesting, good with food and without (served as aperitif and second night before dinner and then with grilled swordfish with lemon/fresh oregano sauce.) Have another bottle and would look for again.
