A whiff of oxidation on the nose. Honeyed, white flowers. Lemon oil. On the palate fresher, quite rich, lovely intensity and good balance. Slight sherry hints at the edges. Very good but drunk up- bothersome, and why I’ve stopped buying Leflaive.

I have opened several bottles over the years, but now the wine starts to give. Nice refined buttery nose. Some of the once firm minerals toned down. So the wine in now much more lucious, almost volluptious. Very modest wood. Alimond bitters. Fresh enough to match the richness of salmon and lobster.
