I was a big fan of the 2010, so happy to see this on form if not in better shape. At its core, there’s an essence of lime drenched in white pepper as well as tinned peach and celery.What is so fabulous though is the deep-rooted minerality, it’s got that wet paving essence down pat and keeps you coming back for another sniff.
What I admire is the viscosity that paves the way for the fruit to unfurl through the palate delivering a laser beam of lime, apple and other fruity ephemera. That texture turns into a clearly defined acid structure while the fruit keeps on delivering flavour long after the last sip. I would love to see this wine with food and I’d also love t see it with some age. Stellar job.
