  Deep golden core. Amazing nose of pure peach and apricot. Medium-sweet, wonderfully rich and concentrated, yet built on a steely core of acidity that keeps everything in impeccable balance. The 2001s continue to impress. This is utterly beautiful.

  A wonderful wine with a great balance of honey-lemon on fruit and nose, with a lovely clarity and purity with great soft acidity.

  Perhaps not the best stored bottle, but still alive and kicking with plenty of time left. Dark golden color with lots of acid to balance the fruit. Long finish. Really nice wine. Opened a bottle of the 2002 version of this wine from the same source about a week before that was completely oxidized, so this really showcases the strength of the 2001 vintage.

  Dark gold/amber in color
  Explosive aromas of apricot/ banana/ tropical fruit - mango
  Palate shows moderate RS but searing acidity which cuts through - the RS is probably way more than expected on tasting
  Really drinking nicely at this point and appears eternal

  This has scents of straight mango purée. Some notes of mandarin, honey, and pineapple but the assertive flavour note is ripe mangos. Quite juicy, lightly sweet with mellowed acidity. I’d say it’s drinking stellar now.
