Not very expressive on the nose at the moment but a complex mix of citrus and stony minerality. On the palate, there's a lovely suggestion of the oak, a touch of spice and creaminess but extremely subtle. Very long, very precise. Great intensity. (JH)

Pale yellow-straw. Aromas of lemon, lime, nutmeg and clove. Rich but dry and tight, showing little easy sweetness to its slightly aggressive flavors of stone fruits, spices and crushed-stone minerality. Shows a penetrating quality but this baby is still youthfully disjointed, even a touch sour on the end. Very difficult to assess with confidence today but the tight finish displays very good length.
