2020 Edition, disgorged in the last quarter of 2019.
Alright, this is a beautiful wine at a charming age. Notes of honeycomb, marmalade, sake, tropical fruits, soaked bread, damp cellar, apple blossoms, orchard fruits, and citrus. On the palate, it's almost full-bodied, racy, structured, graceful, and concentrated. It offers a very potent and expressive core in the mid-palate, which ends with a beautiful and long-evolving aftertaste. The result? A sophisticated, multilayered, and insanely quaffable wine.
