  Six months on from last note, this is still delicious and showing no signs of deterioration. Colour still quite pale.

  Light straw. Peach, apricot and pear drops with time become more pronounced. Slightly flat finish with faint acidity.

  Absolutely holding up. This wine is rich and consistent vintage after vintage. There is a peachiness and even a little lactic quality but it all comes together in a richly scented and weighty wine. It stops short of being ungainly and there is no heat.

  Probably needs another year or so.
  Day 1: Stone fruit, but not much apricot; a bit of almond and wax
  Distinct but not my cup of tea. I can't say it provides good value.
  Will stick with Perret and Rostaing.
  
  Day 2: Half the bottle was poured to a smaller bottle (immediately after opening), sealed and reserved for the following day. It actually improves a bit, I'm getting some peach, apricot and persimmon.
