Attractive white fruit. Perfectly pleasant but lacks tension, complexity and length. Better on second day but not measurably. Perhaps it is still closed down but to my taste this is an inferior vintage compared to 2009 and 2012

mmmm. Tastes like it has closed down already. Soft with the characteristic balance and purity but a little muted and flabby. Not drinking as well as the 2012 was at the same stage. It has all the elements though.

Superb. Young so should be decanted. Still integrating on the mid palate but fantastic depth and finish.
