Incredible body with 11 years on lees. Nice and creamy. Lacks a mid palate and finishes short but pleasant.
Green apple, pear, white grapefruit, some lemon…more lime, apple cider notes, dryish white peach, white spice, whip cream, ginger-ale, bread dough, yeast, saline, crumbed limestone, understated chalk, withering spring flowers, racing, crisp acidity and a even wire to wire finish that does come up short. Maybe, some more time will improve things?

Quite fruity with floral tones, might be a bit on the sweet side for some. Delicate palate if you give it a chance. Great easygoing summer wine. — a year ago
