Very little VA on opening, likely due to the age. As others have said, this is light red fruits and herbs in a cup. Strawberry, fennel, basil, cherry are the most prominent notes here. Slightly flabby, but overall, extremely easy drinking.

Had at the Ledbury. Racing acidity that gives way to a bouquet of citrus as the wine warms, including Meyer lemon, yuzu, and white grapefruit. Like lemon sherbet, it is a perfect complement to a rich dish.

So much VA on opening. After a long decant, aromas of stone fruit, underripe nectarine, gooseberry.
Flavors much like the aroma, peach, pear, mango.
