Great acidity and Chenin character, although not the most harmonious vintage for this wine.

Muted at first but put on weight with air. Mineral drenched, musky, ripe green tree fruit and spice, honey, some new wood influence which actually nicely refines and softens the intensity. Not losing steam and in fact still integrating

Super clean with bright minerality. Really opens up after about a half hour and starts showing some amazing chenin character. Great stuff

Fine but not terribly exciting. Leaner/more acidic than I was expecting

Still quite hard edges on this. Searing acid. I was more impressed w the evolution of the 2012 recently, but I love drinking these wines
