Wasn't prepared for this at all, but the wine showed a level of depth and power that I would have never guessed for the level or vintage. Very nice concentration, line, and well buffered with an acceptable level of creamy oak, this sang loud and most joyous. In a great spot to drink now obviously.

Much more enjoyable than the last bottle i remember. It's in a comfortable, drinkable place now. Golden colour, honeyed light fruit and vanilla/oak nose. Acid is much more balanced now.

Was worried it might be past peak, but it was lovely. Don't see this getting better.

Medium plus lemon. Nose of lemon peel, red apple, stone fruits. Palate has structure with oak and a steeliness. Clean, focused finish.
