Overall Score 93
Judge 1 lifted, round, full bodied, phenolic complexity
Judge 2 glossy lemon leaf, golden florals, salt spray, yellow stonefruit, bit of toast, peach pit and flint. fabulous concentration, spice, minerality, persistence and interest. fresh as a daisy acidity and fine phenolics. Love it.
Judge 3 Bright straw. Gentle nose, white waxy floral, almond blossom, creamy mostly older oak. White peachy, gentle and round. Assume northern rhone blend. Nice wine. Quite fat but pleasingly so, not kernelly bitter.
Associate Judge Shy nose, which is such a shame. Vegetal reduction on palate. Quite succulent to finish, makes me want more. Nicely balanced.
