They're onto the 12' now and it's a completely different wine within the exact same bracket. Portion of new oak potentially? Seriously extensive lees time. Chlorine / saline, sea salt, pineapple, chamomile tea leaves. Really no definitive fruit character what so ever apart from the occasional waft of pineapple. Broad through the mid palate, would love a tiny bit more of a finish. Interesting wine to serve up at a blind tasting. Probably ever so slightly prefer the 10'. Give me a little more acid.
