Spectacular. So youthful with so much aging potential yet. Rich, complex. Bright and fresh. A finish that gives and gives.
And an interesting study in bottle variation and premox. As a test, a 2nd bottle of this was showcased blind in the lineup, and was way further down the road of oxidation.

Golden in color. Nose of candied orange, honey and herb. Palate mirrored the nose with luscious honey. Acid helped to balance this out. Just so smooth and drinkable. Class.
