Estimate
A flinty, steely style, featuring aromas and flavors of oyster shell, apple, lemon and, above all, mineral. Firm and slightly austere, yet balanced and long on the aftertaste.
As creamy as this is in the mouth, it's most notable for its sheer energy and verve, with lemon and crushed stone flavors that pulsate in the middle palate and on the very long aftertaste. A classic vintage for this wine.
...impressively scaled broad-shouldered flavors that possess a beguiling texture as well as an almost painfully intense, palate staining finish that is bone dry. In a word, gorgeous.
Mingles fresh white peach, rhubarb, orange zest, and vanilla in the nose, and comes to the palate with a corresponding sense of invigoration, refreshment and tart, pungent chew...
Very creamy nose, almost buttery. Nutty citrus. Very crisp, tense and great concentration in a linear yet powerful style and then greater richness and length. Great tension and well structured, some tannin.
