genious! could not resist to open a bottle, my first durieux. natural but not natural. would have expected a bit more funk but this is natural in a highly sophisticated way. pear and nut on the nose with a citrus backbone, not too heavy but very complex in it's appearence. hint of pineapple, maracuja. highly drinkable already and worth a pop. develops great in the glas, no decant. medium sized glass allows it to grow. worth the hassle to get hold of a few bottles. After 2 hours of air this gets going on and develops very very nice. Lot's of stuff ahead too come.
