  Just opened it is almost resigned, not dull, but without vigor. After almost eight years it needs quite a bit of "air" to recover.
  So hints of ripe apricot, dehydrated orange, slight vanilla begin to appear.
  In the mouth nice acidity, not very noble almost gruff that then after a few sips softens but not completely. Perhaps it has just passed its apogee.
  On the nose after some more time the vanilla becomes more present along with salted butter scents. Still apricots and citrus marmalade.

  Very Good++. This was best on the second night, after sustained exposure to air. Opens with some reduction that is rather stubborn. Notably tight, but drinkable even on PnP. Lots of lemon, meyer lemon and a spritz of lime. Racy and taut. White flowers, subtle pear and apple and underripe tropical fruit.
  
  Wait to try the next bottle until 2026.
  
  12.5% abv

  A bit underwhelming. Nose features sharp lemon zest and pith, crushed stone, honeysuckle, apricot, white flower. Medium bodied with tart acidity and a bit of textural grit, it needs air to find itself. Flavors include bright lemon juice, white peach, sweet vanilla, honeysuckle, pear, and a bit of buttered bread. It has a lot of good components but the tartness of the acidity takes away from them. I imagine the balance was better a few years ago, and it's hard to see this resolving itself with further aging.

  J’apprécie toujours ce vin. Il demeure très tendue avec une belle acidité mais je n’attendrais pas plus longtemps pour le boire. L’on dirait que l’acidité ne fléchit pas mais le fruit devient plus mûr, plus sûr la compote de pommes.

  90 avec un potentiel d’une note plus haute. Le niveau d’acidité est élevé. Ce vin a beaucoup à offrir avec un beau potentiel de vieillir. La matière est au rendez vous avec des notes de fruits blanc et un beau nez. J’attendrais un peu pour les prochaines bouteilles.
