Opened for dinner with our very good friends that we haven’t had a proper sit-down with in quite a long time.
The wine was just gorgeous from the moment I poured it until the end of the evening. It was quite floral with loads of ripe pear, verging on tropical, dipped in honey; on the palate there is a fair amount of minerality, good acidity to balance out the richness and sweet character of the fruit (though it is dry). Long finish. Superb quality, and I wouldn’t doubt that this can be held for quite a few years, yet.
