6 months since my first note and while the description has changed little it has broadened out revealing additional aromatics and an enhanced integrated viscous veneer. A fine wine indeed - now at its best although no rush. Now - 2027.

Powerful on the nose with a ripe expression and good minerality and malolactic elements. Notes of Meyer lemon, ripe pear, pineapple, peach, baked apple, Danish “koldskål”, plain vanilla panna cotta, honey, buttered warm scone, vanilla, roasted nuts and biscuits. Lots of white flowers and a nice chalky and stony minerality.. On the palate, it’s pretty rich and concentrated (not super fat) with a perfectly balanced acidity, a dry, tightening touch from the stems and fine minerality. Sweet lemon, pomelo, pineapple, ripe peach, banana, butterscotch, white chocolate, roasted hazelnuts, koldskål, hints of vanilla and a nice salty finish.
It’s a big wine, and I think it’s in a great shape right now. Firm but opulent at the same time. Great balance!

Touch of oaky viscosity, white cherry and hints of exotic fruits and spice. Concentrated. Suspect there's a lot more to give here with a little patience. Will hold back now till '24. 91+?+

Quite approchable and delicious but still has potential to only get better.

Consistent with 3 months ago and at the end of the bottle the view was we must buy more and that says a lot about the wine. 92
