Reduction, flint, and gun smoke. A rich, waxy wine showing oaky vanilla, cream, and a still some underlying orchard fruit. Acidity kept it going, but this is starting to get tired and was a bit out of sync for me this evening (though L liked it).

1/12 Classic PYCM profile upon opening. Quite lean and zingy for 30 mins or so before opening to reveal a far more expansive mid palate with real depth. Really minerally, finely crystalline, grippy texture with lots of fine extract. Ready to go and near the top of the upslope I think, there’s lots to like here. ****

A nice step up since the last bottle. Good crisp intensity on the palate, med- body, tart lemon. Med length.

Nez légèrement oxydé, citron et mineral... Striking mineral, huge minerality, but unfortunately a by oxidized...

Amazing integration and minerality. Delicious. Will go 10 more years.
