Between light and medium gold, nice weight, viscous. Crazy nose that evolved over 4 hrs of air. Notes of apricot, hazelnut, spice, lemon, gravel and a little blood orange. Glycerol in the mouth with outstanding balance. This is still on the upslope. When you hit one of these, ...

Enjoyable, with good acid and some fruit left. But on the downside now, with some caramel tones on the finish and some oxidative notes.

Heard stories of 2002 Leflaive premox; none here. Maybe a bit fruit-forward at this point, but acidity and structure are there as well. Wait on others and keep fingers crossed.
