Beautiful colour; outstanding nose, expressive, giving a sense of place, slightly marred by a faint mustiness - old barrel taint? Supple, enticing palate, balanced, characterful & terroir driven; this is fully ready but no need to rush & drink.

Starbright, faint spritz; minerally, hint of fresh mown grass, distinct whiff of water melon; grassy, flamboyant spiciness, yet suave; nervosity on an enticing finish which is spoilt by a rigid edge. May benefit from more time.
