Fat, rich classic Batard character with nice underlying minerality. Based on the lack of evolution in the glass, and the color, I'm inclined to say this one is not going to get any better, drink up. B+

Very complex nose, toast, butterscotch, peach and citrus. The star is the palate though, weight and power without any sense of heaviness. Long, intense and with layers of complexity and flavour. Probably close to its peak now and will drink well over the next 5-7 years.

David's 50th (Canberra, Australia): Golden colour. Nutty and honeyed aromas, with a touch of basil, butterscotch and restrained quality oak. Delicious, balanced palate with excellent texture and length. Opened up and took on more weight and length with air, I think this lovely wine will be best drunk over the next 5-10 years.
