Steel and flint with aromatic citrus, and with no chalk. Lush.

This does keep getting better over the years. Over the four bottles I purchased in 2009, I have one left. This wine has a very pronounced presence. About 10 years on the lees, it tastes that it has been there. Very biscuity, there is little butter but rather a sharpness to the mouthfeel that I find nicely attractive.

Three years after my first bottle, this second bottle provides much improved drinking. Dry, yeasty, persistent.
