Very dry - almost austere. Darker golden colour and petrol on the nose belies Chalky undertones and citrus still there. Acidity and mouthfeel suggests high acidity?

Fuller than the 2005, its drinking earlier. Had with Japanese. Secondary characteristics coming through of kerosene. Limes in the primary, though as above fuller and not as lean. Ripe fruit

More full than austere - the secondary of kerosene coming through. Drinking nicely but won't have legs of the 2005 I reckon. Drinking windows starting now.

Drank a few nights after the Steingarten. V different wine. More austere and Citrus minerality vs the fullness of the Steingarten
