Didn't see back label info, although the bottom of the bottle was red like a Louboutin shoe. Green apple, licorice (kinda like the candy/anise after dinner candy-seed combo that is served in the dish at Indian restaurants as you exit). Lemon in the background, along with a citric-edged tangerine.

Green-yellow color. Lighter Nose, but also smells aged; apples; guessing early ‘10’s. Medium-light to medium bodied. Crisp and brassy palate. Medium+ to high acidity; somewhat straightforward, but I think this simply needs air --- it improved over time.

Served blind. Reserved nose with a hint of anise. Lighter bodied with a somewhat pretty character. Sweeter, later on. Overall it really didn't show much. I have a bottle of 2012 and this didn't really give me a clue as to what I should do with it. Is this tight and young or just sort of basic?

Appears quite golden with fine bubbles. Boulangerie and patiserrie notes on the nose. Medium to full on the palate with zesty acids giving plenty of energy. A seriously good effort.

Yellow fruit with a bit more lemon zest. Baking soda note. Nothing wrong with it but not very notable.
