Xmas eve dinner. I approached this wine with trepidation because of all the concerns about this producer and premature oxidation, but this wine was all together and quite lovely. Full bodied and silky, aged notes of nuts and butterscotch, and a strong acidic core of lemon fruit charging through. Perfect time to drink.

Super stuff. Gold in the glass with a green highlight. Pleasantly unctuous in the mouth with nice acidity. Developing aromas of pears, candied fruit and vanilla. Building intensity in a palate dominated by luscious fruit and balanced by hints of spice with a good savoury finish.Not showing any adverse signs of age. Quite a treat, I wish I had more.
