Much better than the last, especially on the second night when it had lost the rather idiosyncratic notes of orange blossom and yellow peach, to focus more on some crisper white peach and spring flowers, along with classic notes of honey and lanolin.

Quite a rich nose of yellow peach and apricots, with only a hint of lemon and sea-spray, and a rather tight, compact mouthful of mostly apricot, with a little honey, a little short on the finish. Quite enjoyable in its own way, but a big step down from 2017. I suspect the 2018 heat is to blame for the lack of acidity and crispness.

Grosse réductionavec du perlant qui mettra un bout de temps à disparaître pour laisser la place à de jolies senteurs de pommes et de pêches bien mûrs, allant même jusqu'au fruits exotiques. Bouche riche mais bien équilibrée par la fraîcheur. Bonne finale portée pas des amers.
Vraiment agréable après aération !

Spicy nose. Razor sharp acidity w. fruits confit, lime and some white stone fruits. Fruit-forward rather than complex and subtle. Don't serve too cold.
Drink.
