Tasting Notes

**Note: from a .23 ha parcel of vines planted in '62 and '68**
A slightly toasty nose features perfumed notes of Granny Smith apples, white peach, spiced pear and acacia blossom. Once again there is impressive richness to the broad-shouldered yet refined flavors that possess very good verve on the delicious, mouth coating and stony finish. This is a very ripe yet balanced effort that should age well over the mid-term but also drink well young.
