Paired with curry. Nasty fungus just beneath the foil but cork seemed otherwise okay. Light gold color. Nose of white stone, fresh alpine flowers, lime, and apricot. Refreshing and sweet on the palate, not cloying in the slightest, with layers of apricot, lychee, honeydew melon, and white peach. Striking flinty, mineral spine which gave great clarity to the wine. Wonderful acidity. Long, echoing finish of white tropical fruit, stone, and grip. Young wine showing beautifully in its adolescence, from a 375.

A bit dark, too honeyed, somewhat bitter and flat, this probably saw heat because it was under stelvin; disappointing.

White fruit (apple, peach, slight citrus), floral, nice sugar, decent acidity. Enjoyable.
