Monday, May 19, 2014 - Dinner at Mike and Cathy's place (Wellington, New Zealand): Colour pale yellow. Fine beaded mousse. A bouquet of stone fruit: peach, apricot and some pear. Also a yeasty autolysis element with some steely minerality. Fresh and focused in the mouth with good, vibrant acids. The flavours are of citrus and orchard stonefruit, with a bit of mealiness and brioche, finishing dry, on some minerality. Good mid palate fruit weight. Good value, but would benefit from greater complexity. I understand from M. Moutard this is 10 g/l dosage.
