Crisp textured, with high acidity. Peach and citrus dominated fruit. A touch of honey on the finish. Still very bright and primary- this still seems almost painfully young.

10 year tasting: Really nice fruity Champagne with lemon-mandarin orange and orchard fruit; good intensity, rich mouthfeel, probably slightly elevated dosage. I prefer dryer, but but lovely on its own. As the name implies, very a propos for the holidays.

Two recent bottles consumed. The first was much more approachable than any previous bottle and now this seems much more lively and enjoyable with a creamier texture that is added to the sense of precision that was always evident. It appears that this is entering a nice stage in it's development and the second bottle seems to confirm this impression. Glad I had the fortitude and conviction to wait. It should continue to evolve nicely from here.

Bright, clean, a bit straight forward, a bit 4-square. Maybe needs more time.

Crisp, citric, with hints of toast. Elegant and subtle.
