A ripe but still quite fresh nose features plenty of mineral reduction character on the elegant, pure and airy aromas of pear, apple and white flowers that are trimmed in a discreet application of wood. There is excellent punch and intensity to the rich yet precise middle weight flavors that coat the palate with dry extract while exhibiting a gorgeously persistent finish. As I mentioned when I first reviewed this (see herein), this doesn't appear to have suffered from the hail damage that occured on the eve of the harvest.
