With MPL at his house. Pale straw color. Assertive flowery nose with well-integrated oak. On the palate, a full-bodied wine with great depth. Brings tears to my eyes. Tight, tart, lean citrusy flavors, this is quite a good young wine. Green apple predominates. Moderately oaky with a note of complexity in mid-palate. Nicely balanced, with plenty of acid. Very good now, it should only improve with a little bottle age. Good vanillin finish. 5-11-6-8: 90/100.
