A grand wine that is at the tail end of it's peak window, or perhaps just past that peak. Beautiful golden orchard fruit, marmalade and honey notes. Concentrated with a good dollop of fresh acidity as well.

I think this one is a few years past peak. Clearly mature. Soft and integrated with some fruit left. Cork was good looking, so maybe a case of unfavourable cellaring?

Maybe the best CC I’ve had in ages. Color shows no sign of age Refreshing yet balanced acidity. Superb purity, delineation. So very sorry this was my last bottle.

Color does not show the age expected; very fragrant and lively nose; very classic in every way! More acid and complexity seemed to evolve over an hour in the glass; great balance and impact. SUPER!

Very fruity, aromatic, fine mineral with sufficient acidity.
