Affinato molto bene. Dopo 6 anni mi pare nettamente migliorato in complessità, in profondità ed in carattere, rimanendo molto piacevole. Un gran bel vino che può essere atteso ancora senza temere di perderne le migliori qualità. Vino ancora in crescendo.

Identical impressions to the 2011 vintage also reviewed on cellartracker, only this is if anything slighter riper on the nose and palate, creamier, more sophisticated, and longer. Don't know if it's the vintage or an additional year of bottle age. The tell-tale "ponka" minerality crashes through on the finish to remind us this is a distinctive terroir.

Crisp with apple and lemon notes, this is perfect on a hot sticky day with a flaky white fish. While the 2010 vintage is nice, the 2012 was more expressive.
The nose showed lemon curd, almond skins, yellow flowers and a hint of honey. On the palate it was silky smooth showing flavors of apple, nectarine, a hint of citrus and vanilla. The finish was clean with bitter citrus notes lingering on the senses.

Posto una nota del Marzo 2012. Vino molto buono, preciso e caratteristico, di piacevolissima beva, anche se molto alcolico (14°). Naso fresco e fragrante di pompelmo e pesca. Bocca importante e "completa": morbidezza glicerinosa, freschezza citrina, leggero retrogusto amarognolo.
