One of my favorite white wines. Always delivers fresh ripe flavors. Peach and mango with just a hint of acid. Drank over two days. Fruit became less forward and acidity emerged on day two.

Last bottle and not as good as previous one from a year ago. Medium gold color. It has the herbal-fennel nose, finally has perfectly integrated the wood, it shows typicity, white fruit, unctuousness and very savory but it's lacking - and big time - that piercing acidity of the past. That makes it just a bit flabby if it warms too much, so drink it on the cooler side. Still a nice wine and this point, better by its own than with food. Drink up. 88-89

Very enticing nose right from the start, couldn't stop savouring it. There's medium toastiness, integrated oak (especially after Naiades) intelligent, nothing sticks out. Complex Old World style. Milky, sweet and sour notes, toffee, butterscoth, medium bodied. Not as good as 2006, but on its way to greatness, will improve. 92+

Wood has integrated very well although more time in bottle would be better. The wine is elegant, has gained body and unctuosity, showing the varietal typicity very well with fennel, herbs and white fruit. Has enough acidity to hold 2-3 more years.

Probably at it's best now. Lovely golden colour. Quite complex fruit with a hint of marzipan on the palate and a long dry finish.
