Complex, precise aromas of apricot, mirabelle , honey and smoke. Silky, fat and full if quite dry; considerably richer than the young 2003, with sound framing acidity. Finishes very long, with a subtle whiplash of flavor. This has filled in quite nicely since I tasted it from barrel last spring.
Great purity, allowing the vineyard to shine through. Suggests apple, fig and citrus aromas and flavors, but is really about mineral, energy and fine balance. Everything is in the right proportion, and it glides to a long, detailed aftertaste. Drink now through 2015.
This is more elegant than usual on the nose with lovely white flower and peach aromas that blend into round, sweet, nicely plump and remarkably fresh middle weight flavors that display real verve and fine finishing complexity. This is beautifully balanced and I like the snappy supporting acidity.
Guided wine recommendations are based on the region, varietal, flavor profile, and similar customer preferences as this wine.
