Lovely colour, has deepened a bit; wonderful bouquet of lemon curd, waxy bottle age and spicy minerals, deep, fresh and intense; on the palate beautifully linear, wonderfully energetic, a coiled spring, lip-smacking acidity; outstanding length. A great FE that will easily last another ten years.
Wonderful sweet fruit, perfumed, floral, very Burgundian, good weight and structure, quite tannic, lovely minerality, good length, has absorbed the oak very well, a very grown-up PN, lovely now but will last. Had I tasted this blind I might have been tempted to guess Volnay (PC maybe). Now - 2019+.
Lovely peachy fruit, hint of honey, decent acidity, some bitters, pear, good length, the weight of a good Auslese but no more. No great definition or interest but drinking well.
