Mid straw. Enticing one of slightly honied quince with apricot kernel and pear in support. Very fresh on the attack, some sweetness, but more a sense of freshly cut ripe fruit with beautiful acidity. A class balancing act that holds its 80g RS well. Long, complex and effortlessly balanced and elegant. ****

Extra! Un nez d'une finesse et d'une puissance fantastique. Une bouche qui explose avec une longueur remarquable. Un vrai régal et à un prix splendide. Pourra se garder longtemps mais ce sera difficile de ne pas céder à la tentation.

Can't really improve upon my note from several months ago. Gloriously pure quince fruit and great balance. It's young but who cares when something is so delicious?

Medium yellow. Liqueur-like aromas of melon and pear with a small dose of honey. Excellent balancing acidity for an '05. Even better than the first time I had this-delicious without being too unctuous.

Sweet, but well balanced with acidity. Honey , melon, and spice. This will probably just get better and more complex for years to come.
