  More full-bodied, richer style. Nose of citrus fruits, slight petrol notes but less than a previous bottle, evolving to more smoky side. Rich and balanced palate, perhaps without striking acidity, but still mineral and long. Finishes with a lemon pith bitter twist. Very nice. On balance, i think i prefer the '12 for its clarity and freshness.

  Very petroleum like - it actually reminds me of an old shipyard and new laid asphalt. The fruit is not easy to pick up on the nose but there are some green apples and citrus to be found. Pear and white flowers on the palate in a crisp and metallic texture with a honey note finish
