Thursday, July 30, 2015 - Straw yellow. Beautiful and powerful nose. White tropical fruits, lemon and lime. Direct and with a sense of great power and structure, so very young. Big palate dominated by huge lemon notes and acidity, sharp edges. A spicy component at first, liquorice. This is clearly a great wine in the making but today it's just about judging potential imo, next bottle in 3 years. Lesson learned.
