Very good, but seems a bit coiled-up, intense and lacking the exuberance this wine can have. Herbal, spicy, and structurally solid. Just a hint of age starting to creep in on the margins, otherwise this seems much younger than expected and should drink well for years.

Quelle densité! Un vin intense et tranchant, encore tellement jeune. Très minéral, long, savoureux mais encore un peu dur. À revoir dans au moins trois ans, sinon ouvrir longtemps d'avance. 90 (++)

Took to a corkage free night at a local French restaurant. Compared to a couple other whites on the table, this had more density, more character and more depth than the two chardonnays. Beautiful wine.

Light gold color. Nose of high-pitched alpine flowers, rinsed white stone, hints of petrol, white peach, faint apricot. Layers of pure white melon, lychee, flint, and diesel on the incisive palate. Cool, penetrating acidity and tensile spine. Long finish of gorgeous white fruit and dry, centering stone. A stellar young wine coming into its own and destined for timeless evolution.

Exotic fruit (Passionfruit) and citrus. Nice salinity, good density and length.
