Another good bottle, but not as expressive and precise and the previous one. Lovely aromas of honey, white flowers and spiced peach; mild palate, ripe acidity, gentle bitters; relatively short and fuzzy finish.

Intoxicating aroma of honey, peach, spiced apple, chalk and blackcurrant leaf; silky palate, mature and soft but perfectly fresh, both structurally and aromatically, lemon and flowers, very expressive of the terroir and the style of the wine maker. Excellent. Fully mature, but with time in hand. Two bottles left.

Structurally it is sound, but aromatically it is tired. Not quite oxidised, but the flavours of spiced, yellow apple are not much fun. I hope that my remaining bottles will be in better condition. Not rated.

So so complex, my notes say Krug-like!

Absolutely fabulous, flawless, minerally and with unsurpassed silky finesse and length. Magnificent and will last for decades.
