Estimate
...bouquet shows lovely secondary layers of complexity in its mix of pear, delicious apple, wheat toast, chalky minerality, a touch of nuttiness and plenty of upper register smokiness...deep, full-bodied, complex and very refined in personality, with a fine core, elegant mousse and impressive length and grip on the wide open, vibrant and complex finish.
...combines its good maturity with freshness, purity and tension.
Rich and smoky, offering a firm frame of acidity that creates a mouthwatering impression and drives flavors of lemon curd, toasted brioche, ripe plum and smoked walnut. Fine and lacy, with a lively finish.
...ripe and rich...mineral texture and crisp acidity. The toast flavors, now dominant, are given a final lift by hints of honeyed almonds and steely acidity.
