Tasting notes
Pale, bright yellow. Pungent aromas of citrus peel and smoky, iodiney minerality. Broad, fat and powerful, conveying a creamy but dry impression to its very ripe citrus, stone and spice flavors. The seriously long finish displays firm acidity and leaves a strong mineral character in the retronasal passage.

Healthy pale yellow. Montrachet-like aromas and flavors of citrus peel, crushed stone, nutmeg and iodine. Densely packed, vibrant and sharply delineated, with seductive sucrosite perfectly balanced by vibrant, sappy acidity. Terrific cut and class here. Finishes dry, suave and very long, with a tannic firmness that calls for a minimum of five years of cellaring. Offers splendid potential.
