Full yellow. Full blown petrol and dry peach. Medium weight for Smaragd, not particularly powerful, almost bone dry. Classic, excellent, and far more developed than it was 2 years ago.

In a fine spot. Still quite fresh with primary fruit, but the wine tastes settled and round in the mouth. Good energy with acids that are just right, and not too sharp. Good layers and complexity. I like this a lot at age 10-12.

Medium yellow. Pure stone fruit, no petrol yet. Medium weight, not nearly as dense as some Smaragds. Long and ripe. I wasn't particularly struck by this tonight.

delicate and wispy, a wine of harmony and grace, the impression of pure mineral water. There is some tangerine fruit and a hint of rock but really its about the elegant texture and the way the elements harmonize. Not a profound version of this wine, but very lovely.

Like last bottle, beautifully expressive and youthful while starting to show some nuance of its age.
