Estimate
Intense with botrytis and concentrated dried apricot and fig flavors, this is a finely balanced wine.
...fragrant and ethereal with wild honey, yellow flower and orange blossom scents developing with aeration...palate is very well balanced with superb tension and fruit intensity on the entry. It is more linear than recent vintages, minerally with a lovely twist of sour lemon imparting tension and vivacity on the crystalline finish.
...attractive nose with petrol-tinged honeyed fruit, orange blossom and wax resin. Like its peers, there is something a little Germanic here. The palate is very well balanced with a pure entry. The acidity slices through the botrytised fruit, with touches of peach and ginger towards the finish. Fine.
This is a bit shy on the nose, but it’s a powerful and muscular wine with moderate sweetness for the appellation.
Deep aroma of almond paste and apricots, spicy too. Viscous, intense, rich and very sweet but still balanced. Masses of almond-paste flavour and great harmony between richness and freshness.
