Saturday, August 15, 2015 - Medium lemon-gold colour. Nose is an immediate Bang! of new tennis balls, a bass note of humid oak barrels, a high note of fresh star fruit, iron vitamin pills, a gorgeous sweaty, spicy truffly element too - complex and captivating. Palate is tangy sherbet lemon boiled sweets acidity, saliva-inducing saline fresh-squeezed lemon and a nicely weighted back end of oyster shell and an oaky truffle finish. Good length and resonance. Impressive and very expressive...and terribly more-ish although the acidity came to predominate after a couple of hours in the open bottle. The truffle element was way more noticeable than on the previous occasions I have drank this wine.....and there must have been something wrong with the last one back in May 2013, when I scored it 79 uness it just does this thing with more time in the bottle.
