It looks to me that the bottle of one year ago had some storage issue. While not as impressive as when younger, this bottle showed well with a creamy consistency, light lemon, custard, and pear with pleasant acidity and a moderately long finish.

This may be a storage issue, or perhaps substantial bottle variation, but nowhere near as good as it was two years ago and clearly suffering from some oxidation. Pineapple with an offputting harshness on the finish.

Light yellow with a very Burgundian nose that shows tart minerals. Very nicely balanced with pear, green apple, lime, but steely in presentation, firm and crisp. Very well done.
