TASTING NOTE: This has a pure and pristine bouquet with a delicious, layered frame on the palate. Mineral, stony, fresh and pure flavours are bursting through. This is a lovely example of balance, length and complexity that will build over time. Drinking Window: 2017-2023. (Cameron Douglas, MS) Score - 96 (panel score) (decanter.com, Aug. 2017) |
