Just loved sticking my nose in this over and over, then tasting the delightful acids on the long creamy viscous finish, similar to first 2+ years ago and likely a bit better. Fantastic foil with smoked trout and med. couscous plus salty cheeses.

Beautiful evolution. Petrol is still upfront on the nose but layered with notes of pineapple and peaches. The palate is also surprisingly rich in tropical fruits with a mineral backbone and clean acidic finish balancing a fair amount of sugar as well. Time to start drinking over the next couple of years.

Big nose of petrol, honey and white fruit just jumps out of the glass. Delicious notes of apricot, quince, and honeyed star fruit with nice acid cut across the palette with a luscious almost creamy zing. Aging like a charm, this over-delivers with excellent QPR.
