Age has thickened up the flavour a bit. Still brilliantly clear, clean enticing nose, quite rich in mouth, acid balance just right. Showing a bit of its ripe vintage, probably at peak.
edit after an hour: getting better, flavour more defined, lovely.

Intense, complex and concentrated nose of spice, white flowers, peach, citrus, acacia blossom, intensity increases with air. Palate long mineral purity, saline. Simply lovely.

The nose was intense with saline-minerals up front, lime, and crushed stone. On the palate, I found soft, silky textures with yellow apple giving way to a cut of zesty acid and minerals. The finish was long with zesty minerals, citrus and saline-savory tones.

Pale, green tinged. Mineral, kelpy nose, subtle hint of peach, spice, tropical fruits. High acidity, predominantly gooseberry palate, hints of lime, apple, saline mineralite. Quite a creamy mouthfeel. Probably best in 2-5 years.

Excellent sipping at Robuchon Bangkok! Expensive for what it is, but yummy!
