Orange and lemon zest on the nose. Huge in the mouth. Best of the 96s I've tried. Better with 4 hrs of air.

Medium golden colour , thin lemon colour rim . Quite restrained and closed on the nose at first , with light petrol notes complimenting some honied yellow fruits, orange rind , candied peel , crushed stones and ripe pear. On the palate this has laser like acidity with good volume and definition , very mineral intensity and citrus , pear and lightly honied , wet stony finish . Very long and detailed. This is ready but also ageless , not old nor young , and can see this continuing on for a further 10 years .

A ton of Granny Smith. Thick and rich. Great wine!

The sommelier assured me all their bottles had been issue free up to this point. Happy to say the streak continues. No sherry just petrol and mushroom on the nose. In the mouth tropical fruit, baked apple and some tea like flavors all riding a nice wave of acid. Wonderful complexity along with a substantial finish. Have not had enough experience with this wine to opine on what stage of evolution.

Mind-blowing. Petrol and floral and still so youthful at nearly 20 yrs. a real treat.

Such bright acidity! Couldn't believe it was 20 years old. It still tastes youthful and vibrant!
