From the ripe and lush aromas on the nose, I was expecting a flabby palate. To the contrary! Like an elegant ballerina, the wine components are perfectly balanced. Notes of nectarine, lemon, hazelnut and butter are just slightly overshadowed by the vanilla flavours but it is just a matter of a year or two until the aromas are in harmony. Impressive mouth-watering acidity despite the hot vintage. Magnificent. Put it in your cellar for 4-6 years.
