Agree w/previous notes indicating faint hint of oxidation, but not finding it in the mouth and it seems to pass by my senses after a few minutes (do not think it is blowing off). Lemon without the brutal acid. Touch of creme. Lovely. In a really good spot.

Very oxidative nose but not oxidized. Nutty, dried fruit, Madeira, good acidity still. Since I struggle with any wine that has oxidative aromas my score is probably on the low side. 89-92
