Perfect cork no sign of seepage.
Sweetish pruney notes on the nose once the reduction blows off. The wine gives an impression of sweetness on the finish. The warm vintage translates into lower acidity and a slightly cooked fruit character that isn’t especially appealing when i am drinking crozes. None of the crunchy deep fruit that can often be a feature is found here, as good as the winemaking is, the wine already tasted tired and out of balance, suggesting it’s unlikely that further cellaring will change anything.
